Fox Corporation (FOXA): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol FOXA · Communication Services · Entertainment · United States · Class A common stock · Blend Quality
FOXA is Fox Corporation's Class A common stock. The company also lists FOX (Class B 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 FOXA undervalued?
Fox Corporation (FOXA) closed at 69.65 on 5 Nov 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 9 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 86.99, so the price sits 20% below it. 5 of the 9 models value the shares above the current price. A margin of safety between 10% and 30% is where most of the Sunday Scan candidates come from.
The 9 models disagree widely: DDM gives 8.39 while 10 Cap gives 148.11. 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.
Ranked against every other company we cover, neither cheapness nor growth clearly wins for FOXA, so the nightly engine files it under Blend (value score 51, growth score 48, out of 100). It also carries the Quality tag (Quality = moat 7.5+ out of 10 and Piotroski 7+).

Quality and financial health
On financial health FOXA 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 8.4 out of 10 - high returns on capital, steady margins and growth that held up through bad years point to a durable business.
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 8/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| 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 | 8 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 53: Fair
FOXA scores 53 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-69) because it fails filter 5, can repay its debt - 3.4 years to repay its debt (over 3). A stock must pass all 9 Wheel Trade Filters to reach 70. Otherwise the parts read: value good, premium strong, moat strong, health good, red flags fair, option trading fair, 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 39,913 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 6.4M shares a day on a market cap of $29.4B, with a beta of 0.62 - 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 | Passes | Listed options with 1,000+ contracts of open interest and 100+ traded 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 | Good | 20% below fair value | |
| Premium | Strong | implied volatility 37% | |
| Moat | Strong | moat 8.4/10 | |
| Health | Good | Piotroski 7/9 | |
| Red Flags | Fair | Red Flags score 75/100 | |
| Option trading | Fair | 1,185 contracts a day, 39,913 open interest | |
| Stability | Strong | beta 0.62, $29.4B company |
