Fox Corporation (FOX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol FOX · Communication Services · Entertainment · United States · Class B common stock · Blend Quality
FOX is Fox Corporation's Class B common stock. The company also lists FOXA (Class A common stock). The classes own the same business, share the same earnings report and trade within a few cents of each other; what differs is mainly the vote each share carries - the company's annual report sets out the voting rights.
Is FOX undervalued?
At 61.62 (close of 5 Nov 2026), FOX trades 25% under the GLS average fair value of 82.53. 5 of the 9 models that produced a value land above the price. A discount of this size counts as a positive margin of safety in every GLS scan; whether it is enough depends on the rest of the picture - the health score, the moat and the option premium below.
There is a wide gap between DDM (8.39) and Payback Time (146.94). 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, neither cheapness nor growth clearly wins for FOX, so the nightly engine files it under Blend (value score 52, growth score 48, out of 100). It also carries the Quality tag (Quality = moat 7.5+ out of 10 and Piotroski 7+).
Nine valuation models for FOX
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 | 116.44 | +89% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 56.66 | -8% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 94.11 | +53% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 27.64 | -55% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 95.08 | +54% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 143.95 | +134% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 146.94 | +138% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 8.39 | -86% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 53.55 | -13% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -4.95 | -108% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 84.80 | +38% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Fox 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 8.4/10 puts FOX 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 8.8%, ROE 14.5%, ROA 7.5% - with debt at 0.65 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 8.0%.
The dividend yield is 0.93% with a payout ratio of 14% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Television 58%, Cable Network Programming 42% (quarter Q4 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 4/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 1/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 15 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 7 / 9 | ROIC | 8.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 8.4 / 10 | ROE | 14.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.65 | ROA | 7.5% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 8.0% | Payout ratio | 14% |
| Institutions | 4 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 1 / 10 |
Wheel Score 53: Fair
A Wheel Score of 53 keeps Fox Corporation under 70, the mark only a stock that passes all 9 Wheel Trade Filters can reach: it fails filter 1, options that actually trade - options too quiet (943 open interest, 133 a day); and filter 5, can repay its debt - 3.4 years to repay its debt (over 3). The parts: value strong, premium strong, moat strong, health good, red flags good, option trading weak, stability strong.
Implied volatility is 37% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% sweet spot the Wheel Score rewards most: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is thin - 943 contracts across every expiry - so fills at a fair price are not guaranteed; a 30-45-day put may not exist at a usable strike.
Volume runs at 1.4M shares a day on a market cap of $27.5B, with a beta of 0.67 - 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 | options too quiet (943 open interest, 133 a day) |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 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 | 3.4 years to repay its debt (over 3) |
| 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 | Passes | Implied volatility 25-80% (enough premium, not a lottery ticket) |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Strong | 25% below fair value | |
| Premium | Strong | implied volatility 37% | |
| Moat | Strong | moat 8.4/10 | |
| Health | Good | Piotroski 7/9 | |
| Red Flags | Good | Red Flags score 85/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 133 contracts a day, 943 open interest | |
| Stability | Strong | beta 0.67, $27.5B company |
