Fulton Financial Corporation (FULTP): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Financial Services · Banks - Regional · United States · Value
Is FULTP undervalued?
Fulton Financial Corporation (FULTP) closed at 16.63 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 9 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 26.24, which puts the price 37% below it. 6 of the 9 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.
There is a wide gap between GLS Growth (4.38) and 10 Cap (50.82). 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.
The nightly engine files FULTP under Value: positive earnings at a P/E of 18 or less.

Quality and financial health
Fulton Financial Corporation scores 6 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. On durability FULTP scores 5.9/10 on the GLS Moat - a middle reading; the Scorecard on the Quote page's Financials tab shows which ten-year lines are steady and which are not.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 8.2%, ROE 11.2%, ROA 1.2% - with debt at 0.37 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 9.3%.
The dividend yield is 3.40% at a payout ratio of 37%; 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. Revenue comes mainly from Financial Service, Other 31%, Fiduciary and Trust 29%, Deposit Account 19% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
