Armanino Foods of Distinction, Inc. (AMNF): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score

Is AMNF undervalued?

Armanino Foods of Distinction, Inc. (AMNF) closed at 11.86 on 16 Oct 2026, close to the GLS average fair value of 13.18 (10.0% below fair value). 4 of the 9 models that produced a number sit above the price, 5 below - the market and our models roughly agree. With little margin of safety either way, the case for or against the stock rests on the quality numbers and the option premium rather than on price.

The 9 models disagree widely: Lynch gives 2.57 while GLS Growth gives 38.98. A spread that wide means the average is sensitive to which methods you trust; the model table below shows where each one lands, and the Quote page lets you switch any of them off.

The nightly engine files AMNF under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.

Nine valuation models for AMNF

Each model turns the latest filed numbers into a value per share; the GLS fair value is the simple average of the ones that produce a positive number.

Quality and financial health

Financial health is average - AMNF passes 6 of the nine Piotroski tests, which passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is 7.8 out of 10, built from ten years of revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, share count and returns on capital scored for consistency - a high reading that points to a durable business.

Returns on capital are high - ROIC 42.8%, ROE 43.6%, ROA 33.2% - with debt at 0.02 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 4.1%.

The dividend yield is 1.69% at a payout ratio of 30%; for a wheel trader holding assigned shares the dividend adds to the covered-call premium, and the ex-dividend date is worth knowing before a call is sold.

Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.

Wheel Score 39: No options

AMNF has no listed options in the nightly snapshot, so there is nothing to sell and the stock cannot be wheeled however good the business; the Wheel Score is capped at 39 and shown as "No options" (39 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.

Volume runs at 0k shares a day on a market cap of $364M, with a beta of 0.09 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.

The Wheel Score ranks ~7,400 US stocks for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls; it is updated nightly and is not a recommendation. The walkthrough lesson shows how the score fits into a trade, start to finish.

Upcoming events

The next earnings report is due on 5 Nov 2026 (after the close), 20 days away; a 30-45-day put sold today would expire after it, which is worth weighing against the premium. The shares go ex-dividend on 16 Oct 2026 (0.0500 per share), so a covered call sold before then carries a small early-assignment risk around that date.
