Entegris, Inc. (ENTG): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Technology · Semiconductors · United States · Blend
Is ENTG undervalued?
ENTG closed at 146.87 on 16 Oct 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 44.24. Only 0 of the 9 models that produced a value sit above the price. By our models the shares are priced well beyond what the filed earnings, cash flow and book value support; the Sunday Scan drops names like this at the "below fair value" rule.
The 9 models disagree widely: DDM gives 5.89 while Payback Time gives 87.39. 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.

| Lynch | 31.08 | -79% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 17.93 | -88% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |

Quality and financial health
On financial health ENTG scores 7/9 (Piotroski): most of the nine tests - positive earnings and cash flow, falling debt, rising margins and turnover - are passed, which is the kind of balance sheet a wheel trader is happy to be assigned. The GLS Moat score is 5.3 out of 10: a ten-year record that is consistent in some of the metrics the score tracks (revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, returns on capital) and patchy in others.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 3.0%, ROE 6.0%, ROA 2.8% - with debt at 0.98 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 2.6%.
The dividend yield is 0.27% with a payout ratio of 20% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Advanced Purity Solutions 58%, Materials Solutions MS 42% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 3/10 and Congressional trading 2/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 7 / 9 | ROIC | 3.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.3 / 10 | ROE | 6.0% |
| Debt / equity | 0.98 | ROA | 2.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 2.6% | Payout ratio | 20% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 3 · 2 / 10 |
Wheel Score 60: Fair
ENTG scores 60 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 0/25, Health 16/20, Moat 8/15, Premium 17/20, Stability 19/20. Value (0/25) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 71% 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 (17 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is 35,889 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 3.9M shares a day on a market cap of $22.4B, with a beta of 1.40 - 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 19 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -232% margin of safety | |
| Health | 16 / 20 | Piotroski 7/9 | |
| Moat | 8 / 15 | moat 5.3/10 | |
| Premium | 17 / 20 | implied volatility 71% | |
| Stability | 19 / 20 | 3.9M shares/day, $22.4B cap, beta 1.40 |

Upcoming events
Entegris, Inc. reports earnings on 29 Oct 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 28 Oct 2026 (0.1000 per share), so a covered call sold before then carries a small early-assignment risk around that date.
