Viant Technology Inc. (DSP): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol DSP · Technology · Software - Application · United States · Growth
Is DSP undervalued?
At 13.14 (close of 5 Nov 2026), DSP trades 46% below the GLS average fair value of 24.24. That average comes from 8 models run on the latest filings, and 4 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns Viant Technology Inc. the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
There is a wide gap between DCF (1.04) and 10 Cap (61.03). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.
Ranked against every other company we cover, DSP is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 44, growth score 81, out of 100).
Nine valuation models for DSP
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 | 1.04 | -92% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 8.35 | -36% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 27.87 | +112% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 12.18 | -7% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 29.83 | +127% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 61.03 | +364% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 48.23 | +267% | 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 | 5.41 | -59% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | 2.86 | -78% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 18.83 | +43% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Viant Technology Inc. scores 5 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that falls one point short of the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. A GLS Moat score of 4.2/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 8.0%, ROE 10.2%, ROA 1.8% - with debt at 0.26 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 6.2%.
Viant Technology 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 8/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | 8.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.2 / 10 | ROE | 10.2% |
| Debt / equity | 0.26 | ROA | 1.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 6.2% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 8 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 41: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 41 Viant Technology Inc. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 1, options that actually trade - options too quiet (1,129 open interest, 73 a day); and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 5/9 (under 6); and filter 8, big enough - market cap $874M (under $1.0B); Option trading (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 68% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% top of the sweet spot. It still passes the 25-80% filter, but the Wheel Score rewards it less because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is thin - 1,129 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 365k shares a day on a market cap of $874M, with a beta of 1.13; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | options too quiet (1,129 open interest, 73 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 | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 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 | Fails | market cap $874M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Strong | 46% below fair value | |
| Premium | Strong | implied volatility 68% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 4.2/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Red Flags | Fair | Red Flags score 70/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 73 contracts a day, 1,129 open interest | |
| Stability | Fair | beta 1.13, $874M company |
