Brookfield Corporation (BN): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol BN · Financial Services · Asset Management · Canada · Class A common stock · Blend
BN is Brookfield Corporation's Class A common stock. The classes own the same business, share the same earnings report and trade within a few cents of each other; what differs is mainly the vote each share carries - the company's annual report sets out the voting rights.
Is BN undervalued?
Brookfield Corporation (BN) closed at 43.10 on 5 Nov 2026, 320% above the GLS average fair value of 10.27. 6 of the 6 models that produced a number value the shares below the current price. A gap this wide usually means the market is paying for growth or a story the trailing numbers do not show yet; the models work from filed results, not forecasts, so they are conservative by design.
The 6 models disagree widely: GLS Growth gives 1.75 while Graham Growth gives 23.50. 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.
Ranked against every other company we cover, neither cheapness nor growth clearly wins for BN, so the nightly engine files it under Blend (value score 23, growth score 12, out of 100).
Nine valuation models for BN
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.
| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | - | - | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital; no value tonight |
| Graham Number | 16.28 | -62% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 23.50 | -45% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 9.47 | -78% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 1.75 | -96% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | - | - | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10%; no value tonight |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |
| DDM | 3.97 | -91% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 6.65 | -85% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -126.05 | -392% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 58.50 | +36% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - BN passes 5 of the nine Piotroski tests, which falls one point short of the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is low at 3.7 out of 10: returns on capital, margins or the balance sheet have not shown a lasting edge yet - often a young company, a thin-margin business or one that has only recently turned profitable.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 0.4%, ROE 2.7%, ROA 0.3% - with debt at 6.54 times equity and negative free cash flow. Debt of 6.54 times equity is on the high side for the sector and is worth checking against the cash flow before treating the stock as a long-term hold.
The dividend yield is 0.63% with a payout ratio of 41% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business.
Institutional ownership scores 7/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | 0.4% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.7 / 10 | ROE | 2.7% |
| Debt / equity | 6.54 | ROA | 0.3% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -8.6% | Payout ratio | 41% |
| Institutions | 7 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 31: Weak
BN scores 31 out of 100 on the Wheel Score, in the Weak band (under 50): it fails filter 3, below fair value - trades 320% above our fair value; and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 5/9 (under 6), and the parts are thin too - value weak, premium good, moat fair, health fair, red flags weak, option trading good, stability good. The score is not a judgement on the company; it says the price, quality and premium do not line up for selling puts on it today.
Implied volatility is 30% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out: enough to pass the 25-80% Wheel Trade Filter, but under the 35-60% sweet spot the score rewards most. Chain open interest is 45,877 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 6.1M shares a day on a market cap of $96.2B, with a beta of 1.83 - a high beta, so the stock tends to move more than the market and a strike can be gapped through; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that good.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Passes | Listed options with 1,000+ contracts of open interest and 100+ traded a day |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 3 | Below fair value | Fails | trades 320% above our fair value |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 5/9 (under 6) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Passes | Implied volatility 25-80% (enough premium, not a lottery ticket) |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Weak | 320% above fair value | |
| Premium | Good | implied volatility 30% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 3.7/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Red Flags | Weak | Red Flags score 67/100 | |
| Option trading | Good | 3,421 contracts a day, 45,877 open interest | |
| Stability | Good | beta 1.83, $96.2B company |
