CI&T Inc (CINT): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Technology · Software - Infrastructure · Brazil · High Growth
Is CINT undervalued?
CI&T Inc (CINT) closed at 3.03 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 8 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 7.21, which puts the price 58% below it. 7 of the 8 models value the shares above the current price. A gap this wide is rare in our universe of ~7,400 US stocks and is exactly what the Value part of the Wheel Score rewards; it is also where the question "why is it this cheap?" matters most.
The 8 models disagree widely: DCF gives 2.49 while Graham Growth gives 14.18. 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 CINT under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.
Nine valuation models for CINT
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 | 2.49 | -18% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 4.08 | +35% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 14.18 | +368% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 6.02 | +99% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 10.73 | +254% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 8.17 | +170% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 8.78 | +190% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | - | - | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend; no value tonight |
| EPV | 3.22 | +6% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -0.4249 | -114% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 5.10 | +68% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - CINT 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 low at 2.1 out of 10, which says the ten-year record of revenue, earnings, margins and returns on capital has been inconsistent - growth and shocks rather than steady compounding.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 9.3%, ROE 13.2%, ROA 7.3% - with debt at 0.42 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 8.5%.
CI&T Inc pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 9 Oct 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 9.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 2.1 / 10 | ROE | 13.2% |
| Debt / equity | 0.42 | ROA | 7.3% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 8.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 54: Fair
CINT scores 54 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 25/25, Health 13/20, Moat 3/15, Premium 6/20, Stability 6/20. Moat (3/15) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 116% 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 (6 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is thin - 1,252 contracts across every expiry - so fills at a fair price are not guaranteed; a 30-45-day put may not exist at a usable strike.
Volume runs at 89k shares a day on a market cap of $388M, with a beta of 0.82; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 58% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 3 / 15 | moat 2.1/10 | |
| Premium | 6 / 20 | implied volatility 116% | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 89k shares/day, $388M cap, beta 0.82 |
