Artisan Focus Fund Investor Shares (ARTTX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol ARTTX · Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Fund / Note
Is ARTTX undervalued?
ARTTX closed at 27.33 on 5 Nov 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 14.88. Only 0 of the 1 models that produced a value sit above the price. By our models the shares are priced well beyond what the filed earnings, cash flow and book value support; the "below fair value" Wheel Trade Filter keeps names like this under 70.
The average is built from just 1 models (DDM) - the rest returned nothing because an input they need (dividends, free cash flow, book value) is zero or negative - so treat it with more caution than usual.
ARTTX looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.
Nine valuation models for ARTTX
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. The last two rows are shown for reference and never enter the average. The Quote page lets you switch any model off and add your own margin of safety.

Quality and financial health
Artisan Focus Fund Investor Shares scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. There is no GLS Moat score for ARTTX: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -11.9%, ROE -11.9%, ROA -11.6% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is 3.70% at a payout ratio of 0%; 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.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | -11.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | -11.9% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | -11.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 11: No options
No options are listed on Artisan Focus Fund Investor Shares in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 11, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at - a day on a market cap of $1.3B, with a beta of 1.05; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.
