Gabelli Multimedia Trust Inc. (GGT): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · High Growth
Is GGT undervalued?
GGT has a margin of safety of 80%: the stock closed at 3.93 on 16 Oct 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 19.27. 6 of the 7 valuation models that produced a number sit above the price. Our screens treat a discount this large as a strong starting point for a cash-secured put, not as a verdict - the fair value is a model output, and a wide gap can mean the models are missing something the market knows.
The 7 models disagree widely: DCF gives 0.7453 while Graham Growth gives 43.01. 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.
The nightly engine files GGT under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.

|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 0.7453 | -81% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 9.44 | +140% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |

| Lynch | 18.80 | +378% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 41.56 | +957% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | - | - | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10%; no value tonight |
| 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
Financial health is average - GGT passes 5 of the nine Piotroski tests, which falls one point short of the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is low at 4.5 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 high - ROIC 19.8%, ROE 19.8%, ROA 19.7% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is high at 22.39% (payout ratio 0%). A yield this size is often the market's way of pricing a risk to the payout, so the health score and cash flow matter more than usual.
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 6/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | 19.8% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.5 / 10 | ROE | 19.8% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | 19.7% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 6 · 5 / 10 |
