FAM Small Cap Fund Investor Class (FAMFX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Blend
Is FAMFX undervalued?
FAM Small Cap Fund Investor Class (FAMFX) closed at 23.12 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 3 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 6,575.74, which puts the price 100% below it. 2 of the 3 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.
Only 3 of the nine models produced a value (DCF, 10 Cap, DDM); the others need a dividend, positive free cash flow or positive book value the company does not have yet, so the average rests on a narrow base.

Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - FAMFX 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 8.8 out of 10, built from ten years of revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, share count and returns on capital scored for consistency - a high reading that points to a durable business.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 31.4%, ROE 31.6%, ROA 16.4% - with debt at 0.01 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 0.7%.
The dividend yield is 3.34% at a payout ratio of 50%; 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.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 31.4% |

| GLS Moat | 8.8 / 10 | ROE | 31.6% |
| Debt / equity | 0.01 | ROA | 16.4% |
