Great Elm Group, Inc. (GEG): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol GEG · Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Speculative
Is GEG undervalued?
Great Elm Group, Inc. (GEG) closed at 2.20 on 5 Nov 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 2 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 7.79, which puts the price 72% below it. 2 of the 2 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.
The average is built from just 2 models (DCF, 10 Cap) - the rest returned nothing because an input they need (dividends, free cash flow, book value) is zero or negative - so treat it with more caution than usual.
The nightly engine files GEG under Speculative - it is losing money or its Piotroski health score is 3 or lower - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.
Nine valuation models for GEG
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 |
|---|---|---|---|

| Graham Number | - | - | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share; no value tonight |
| Graham Growth | - | - | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields; no value tonight |
| Lynch | - | - | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25%; no value tonight |
| GLS Growth | - | - | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year; no value tonight |
| 10 Cap | 10.25 | +366% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |

Quality and financial health
Great Elm Group, Inc. scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. A GLS Moat score of 2.4/10 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 thin or negative - ROIC -33.7%, ROE -86.9%, ROA -31.2% - with debt at 1.58 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 23.0%.
Great Elm Group, 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 Real Estate Property Sales 68%, Management Service, Base 16%, Project Management Fees 6% (quarter Q3 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 3/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 21 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | -33.7% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 2.4 / 10 | ROE | -86.9% |
| Debt / equity | 1.58 | ROA | -31.2% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 23.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 3 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 28: No options
No options are listed on Great Elm Group, Inc. in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 28, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 1k shares a day on a market cap of $68M, with a beta of 0.61 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that fair.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | no listed options |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | speculative (a loss, or a weak Piotroski score) |
| 3 | Below fair value | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 4/9 (under 6) |
| 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 | Fails | no implied volatility |
| 8 | Big enough | Fails | market cap $68M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Fails | price 2.20 (under $5) |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |

| Value | Strong | 72% below fair value | |
| Premium | Weak | no option data | |
| Moat | Weak | moat 2.4/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 4/9 | |
