Is BDL undervalued?
BDL closed at 49.50 on 16 Oct 2026, which is 21% above the GLS average fair value of 40.78 from 9 models. 5 of them value the shares below today's price. Our screens read that as "no margin of safety": the stock is not a value candidate at this price, whatever the quality numbers say.
The 9 models disagree widely: GLS Growth gives 4.61 while 10 Cap gives 101.79. 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 BDL under Value: positive earnings at a P/E of 18 or less.

Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - BDL 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 5.7 out of 10: a ten-year record that is consistent in some of the metrics the score tracks (revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, returns on capital) and patchy in others.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 4.5%, ROE 7.7%, ROA 3.6% - with debt at 0.72 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 6.2%.
The dividend yield is 1.21% with a payout ratio of 17% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Restaurants 44%, Restaurant Food Sales 34%, Package Store Sales 13% (quarter Q3 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 4.5% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.7 / 10 | ROE | 7.7% |
| Debt / equity | 0.72 | ROA | 3.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 6.2% | Payout ratio | 17% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 31: No options
BDL 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" (31 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 57k shares a day on a market cap of $92M, with a beta of 0.31 - 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.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 4 / 25 | -21% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 9 / 15 | moat 5.7/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 57k shares/day, $92M cap, beta 0.31 |
