Filana Therapeutics, Inc. (FLNA): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Healthcare · Biotechnology · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is FLNA undervalued?
Filana Therapeutics, Inc. (FLNA) closed at 0.7608 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 1 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 1.85, which puts the price 59% below it. 1 of the 1 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.
The average is built from just 1 models (DCF) - the rest returned nothing because an input they need (dividends, free cash flow, book value) is zero or negative - so treat it with more caution than usual.
The nightly engine files FLNA under Speculative / Distressed - negative earnings or a Piotroski score of 3 or less - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.

Quality and financial health
Filana Therapeutics, Inc. scores only 1 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. A GLS Moat score of 0.0/10 is a weak reading: the ten-year history the score grades (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, share count, ROIC) has not been steady, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -122.3%, ROE -122.3%, ROA -76.9% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Filana Therapeutics, 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 5/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 1 / 9 | ROIC | -122.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 0.0 / 10 | ROE | -122.3% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | -76.9% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -55.6% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 41: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 41 Filana Therapeutics, Inc. sits in the Weak band. The parts - Value 25/25, Health 2/20, Moat 0/15, Premium 5/20, Stability 8/20 - show where: Moat (0/15) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 244%, far above the range the wheel strategy is built for. The premium looks generous; the Wheel Score gives it only 5 of 20 Premium points because moves of that size can blow through any strike. Chain open interest is 30,392 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 248k shares a day on a market cap of $37M, with a beta of -0.66 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 8 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 59% margin of safety | |
| Health | 2 / 20 | Piotroski 1/9 | |
| Moat | 0 / 15 | moat 0.0/10 | |
| Premium | 5 / 20 | implied volatility 244% | |
| Stability | 8 / 20 | 248k shares/day, $37M cap, beta -0.66 |
