Energy · Oil & Gas Exploration & Production · Colombia · Value
Is GPRK undervalued?
GeoPark Limited (GPRK) closed at 11.53 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 9 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 23.40, which puts the price 51% below it. 7 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.
The 9 models disagree widely: DDM gives 1.56 while Graham Growth gives 71.50. 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 GPRK under Value: positive earnings at a P/E of 18 or less.

| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 23.41 | +103% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 12.57 | +9% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 71.50 | +520% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 31.25 | +171% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 3.66 | -68% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 35.19 | +205% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 17.57 | +52% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 1.56 | -86% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 13.89 | +20% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -8.86 | -177% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 12.00 | +4% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - GPRK passes 6 of the nine Piotroski tests, which passes 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 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 moderate - ROIC 6.0%, ROE 20.2%, ROA 4.8% - with debt at 2.36 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 7.9%. Debt of 2.36 times equity is on the high side for the sector and is worth checking against the cash flow before treating the stock as a long-term hold.
The dividend yield is 0.92% with a payout ratio of 15% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business.
Institutional ownership scores 4/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 21 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 6.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.0 / 10 | ROE | 20.2% |
| Debt / equity | 2.36 | ROA | 4.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 7.9% | Payout ratio | 15% |
| Institutions | 4 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 74: Good
GPRK scores 74 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Good band, 65-79). The score blends the margin of safety (Value, 25/25), Piotroski health (13/20), the GLS moat (5/15), the option premium on offer (20/20) and how easily the stock trades (11/20). Moat (5/15) is the part holding the score back.
Implied volatility is 54% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% range the Wheel Score pays full marks for: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is 3,435 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 337k shares a day on a market cap of $748M, with a beta of 0.39 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 11 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 51% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 5 / 15 | moat 3.0/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 54% | |
| Stability | 11 / 20 | 337k shares/day, $748M cap, beta 0.39 |
