Financial Services · Banks - Regional · United States · High Yield Income
Is HBANP undervalued?
Huntington Bancshares Incorporated (HBANP) closed at 15.83 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 9 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 17.77, so the price sits 11% below it. 4 of the 9 models value the shares above the current price. A margin of safety between 10% and 30% is where most of the Sunday Scan candidates come from.
There is a wide gap between DCF (0.9267) and 10 Cap (35.90). 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 HBANP under High Yield Income: a dividend yield above 4%.

Quality and financial health
Huntington Bancshares Incorporated 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. A GLS Moat score of 4.0/10 is a weak reading: the ten-year history the score grades (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, share count, ROIC) has not been steady, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 5.2%, ROE 9.1%, ROA 1.0% - with debt at 0.76 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 9.5%.
The dividend yield is high at 4.04% (payout ratio 48%). 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. Revenue comes mainly from Consumer & Regional Banking 66%, Commercial Banking 34% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 5.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.0 / 10 | ROE | 9.1% |
| Debt / equity | 0.76 | ROA | 1.0% |
