Grid Dynamics Holdings, Inc. (GDYN): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Technology · Information Technology Services · United States · Blend
Is GDYN undervalued?
At 8.01 (close of 16 Oct 2026), GDYN trades 363% over the GLS average fair value of 1.73, with 0 of 8 models above the price. The stock earns none of the Wheel Score's Value points at this price. That is a statement about price against trailing fundamentals, not about the company's prospects - the Wall Street View and the Growth tab on the Quote page carry the forward numbers.
The 8 models disagree widely: Lynch gives 0.3480 while 10 Cap gives 6.73. 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.

Quality and financial health
On financial health GDYN 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 low at 3.0 out of 10, which says the ten-year record of revenue, earnings, margins and returns on capital has been inconsistent - growth and shocks rather than steady compounding.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 1.7%, ROE 1.8%, ROA 1.6% - with debt at 0.03 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 2.5%.
Grid Dynamics Holdings, 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 Technology, Media, And Telecom 32%, Retail 27%, Financial Service 23% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 9/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 7 / 9 | ROIC | 1.7% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.0 / 10 | ROE | 1.8% |
| Debt / equity | 0.03 | ROA | 1.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 2.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 9 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 49: Weak
GDYN scores 49 out of 100 on the Wheel Score, in the Weak band (under 50). Value 0/25, Health 16/20, Moat 5/15, Premium 17/20, Stability 12/20. The score is not a judgement on the company; it says the price, quality and premium do not line up for selling puts on it today.
Implied volatility is 74% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% ceiling of the sweet spot. Premiums are large, but the Wheel Score tapers the Premium points (17 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is 8,457 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 645k shares a day on a market cap of $650M, with a beta of 0.96; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 12 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -363% margin of safety | |
| Health | 16 / 20 | Piotroski 7/9 | |
| Moat | 5 / 15 | moat 3.0/10 | |
| Premium | 17 / 20 | implied volatility 74% | |
| Stability | 12 / 20 | 645k shares/day, $650M cap, beta 0.96 |
