Freshworks Inc. (FRSH): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol FRSH · Technology · Software - Application · United States · Class A common stock · Growth
FRSH is Freshworks Inc.'s 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 FRSH undervalued?
At 13.26 (close of 5 Nov 2026), FRSH trades 44% below the GLS average fair value of 23.55. That average comes from 8 models run on the latest filings, and 5 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 Freshworks Inc. 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 Graham Number (7.90) and GLS Growth (48.65). 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, FRSH is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 45, growth score 79, out of 100).

| Graham Number | 7.90 | -40% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 33.38 | +152% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 13.69 | +3% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 48.65 | +267% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 10.35 | -22% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 40.10 | +202% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |

Quality and financial health
Freshworks Inc. 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 4.1/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 17.1%, ROE 17.8%, ROA 11.5% - with debt at 0.04 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 7.7%.
Freshworks Inc. pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain. Revenue comes mainly from Professional Services 100% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 9/10, insider activity 3/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 7 / 9 | ROIC | 17.1% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.1 / 10 | ROE | 17.8% |
| Debt / equity | 0.04 | ROA | 11.5% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 7.7% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 9 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 3 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 82: Good
With a Wheel Score of 82 - the Good band - Freshworks Inc. passes all 9 Wheel Trade Filters. How it ranks: value strong, premium strong, moat fair, health good, red flags good, option trading fair, stability fair. Moat (fair) is the part keeping it out of the Prime band.
Implied volatility is 50% 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 19,749 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 11.3M shares a day on a market cap of $3.5B, with a beta of 0.90; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.

|---|---|---|---|
| 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 | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 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 | |
|---|---|---|---|
