First Farmers Financial Corporation (FFMR): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score

Is FFMR undervalued?

At 37.50 (close of 5 Nov 2026), FFMR trades 39% below the GLS average fair value of 61.98. That average comes from 9 models run on the latest filings, and 7 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 First Farmers Financial Corporation 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 DDM (15.38) and Payback Time (112.53). 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, FFMR is clearly cheaper than it is fast-growing, so the nightly engine files it under Value (value score 65, growth score 42, out of 100). It also carries the Quality tag (Quality = moat 7.5+ out of 10 and Piotroski 7+).

Quality and financial health

First Farmers Financial Corporation scores 7 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, the nine yes/no tests of profitability, leverage and efficiency on the latest annual accounts - a strong reading that passes the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter with room to spare. A GLS Moat score of 9.1/10 puts FFMR among the more durable businesses we track: over up to ten years its returns on capital have stayed high, its margins steady and its balance sheet sound.

Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 9.4%, ROE 15.6%, ROA 1.5% - with debt at 0.66 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 11.3%.

The dividend yield is 2.79% at a payout ratio of 26%; 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.

Wheel Score 38: No options

No options are listed on First Farmers Financial Corporation in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 38, 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 0k shares a day on a market cap of $520M, with a beta of 0.21 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.

The Wheel Score ranks ~7,400 US stocks for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls: a stock must pass all 9 Wheel Trade Filters to score 70, and the score then ranks the ones that pass; the Sunday Scan is the top 10. It is updated nightly and is not a recommendation. How the Wheel Score works · the walkthrough lesson shows how it fits into a trade, start to finish.
