Byrna Technologies Inc. (BYRN): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Industrials · Aerospace & Defense · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is BYRN undervalued?
At 4.78 (close of 16 Oct 2026), BYRN trades 13% over the GLS average fair value of 4.22. 0 of the 1 models land above the price and 1 below. A negative margin of safety costs Value points in the Wheel Score (7 of 25 here) - the models see no discount, which does not make the business a poor one, only the price a full one.
The average is built from just 1 models (10 Cap) - 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.
The nightly engine files BYRN under Speculative / Distressed - negative earnings or a Piotroski score of 3 or less - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.

Quality and financial health
Byrna Technologies Inc. scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. 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. A GLS Moat score of 1.7/10 is a weak reading: the ten-year history the score grades (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, share count, ROIC) has not been steady, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 13.9%, ROE 14.7%, ROA 11.5% - with debt at 0.06 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 5.6%.
Byrna Technologies Inc. pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain. Revenue comes mainly from Product 100% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 7/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 13.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 1.7 / 10 | ROE | 14.7% |
| Debt / equity | 0.06 | ROA | 11.5% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 5.6% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 7 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 43: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 43 Byrna Technologies Inc. sits in the Weak band. The parts - Value 7/25, Health 9/20, Moat 3/15, Premium 14/20, Stability 10/20 - show where: Moat (3/15) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 83% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% ceiling of the sweet spot. Premiums are large, but the Wheel Score tapers the Premium points (14 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is 7,348 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 787k shares a day on a market cap of $112M, with a beta of 1.69 - 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 gives that 10 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 7 / 25 | -13% margin of safety | |
| Health | 9 / 20 | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Moat | 3 / 15 | moat 1.7/10 | |
| Premium | 14 / 20 | implied volatility 83% | |
| Stability | 10 / 20 | 787k shares/day, $112M cap, beta 1.69 |
