Is DTW undervalued?
DTW has a margin of safety of 46%: the stock closed at 18.00 on 5 Nov 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 33.33. 3 of the 6 valuation models that produced a number sit above the price. Our scans treat a discount this large as a strong starting point for a cash-secured put, not as a verdict - the fair value is a model output, and a wide gap can mean the models are missing something the market knows.
There is a wide gap between GLS Growth (5.06) and Graham Number (91.29). 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.
DTW looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.
Nine valuation models for DTW
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 | 91.29 | +407% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 19.41 | +8% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 6.39 | -64% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 5.06 | -72% | 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 | 68.57 | +281% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 9.23 | -49% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |

Quality and financial health
DTE Energy Company 5.25 % Debentures 2017-01.12.77 Global scores 6 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that passes 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. There is no GLS Moat score for DTW: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 3.8%, ROE 11.9%, ROA 2.7% - with debt at 2.16 times equity and negative free cash flow. Debt of 2.16 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 3.39% at a payout ratio of 69%; for a wheel trader holding assigned shares the dividend adds to the covered-call premium, and the ex-dividend date is worth knowing before a call is sold. Revenue comes mainly from Electric 45%, Energy Trading 36%, Gas 14% (fiscal year FY2023).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 3.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | 11.9% |
| Debt / equity | 2.16 | ROA | 2.7% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -6.7% | Payout ratio | 69% |

Wheel Score 30: No options
No options are listed on DTE Energy Company 5.25 % Debentures 2017-01.12.77 Global in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 30, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 44k shares a day on a market cap of $28.6B, with a beta of 0.50 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that strong.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | no listed options |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | a fund or note, not a company |
| 3 | Below fair value | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Passes | Piotroski F-score 6 or more out of 9 (a company with no score on file passes) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Fails | 7.0 years to repay its debt (over 6) |
| 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 | Fails | no implied volatility |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |

Upcoming events
DTE Energy Company 5.25 % Debentures 2017-01.12.77 Global reports earnings on 5 Nov 2026 (before the open) - inside the 14-day window the Sunday Scan avoids, because a put sold now would carry the report's gap risk. The shares go ex-dividend on 16 Nov 2026 (0.3281 per share), so a covered call sold before then carries a small early-assignment risk around that date.
