Laird Superfood, Inc. (LSF): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Consumer Defensive · Packaged Foods · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is LSF undervalued?
At 2.70 (close of 16 Oct 2026), LSF has no GLS fair value: every one of the nine models needs a positive input (the company lost money over the last twelve months, EPS -0.25 and it pays no dividend), so the margin of safety is blank and the Wheel Score cannot be computed. Our screens leave the stock out at the first rule. What can be said from the nightly row is below.
The nightly engine files LSF under Speculative / Distressed - negative earnings or a Piotroski score of 3 or less - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.
Nine valuation models for LSF
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.

| 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 |

| 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
Laird Superfood, Inc. scores only 2 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. 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 1.5/10 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 thin or negative - ROIC -28.0%, ROE -28.4%, ROA -16.9% - with debt at 0.01 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Laird Superfood, 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 Gross Sales 49%, Coffee Creamers 24%, Coffee Tea and Hot Chocolate Products 10% (quarter Q2 FY2023).
Institutional ownership scores 2/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 2 / 9 | ROIC | -28.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 1.5 / 10 | ROE | -28.4% |
| Debt / equity | 0.01 | ROA | -16.9% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -3.7% | Payout ratio | -4% |
| Institutions | 2 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 20: No options
No options are listed on Laird Superfood, Inc. in our nightly snapshot. The Wheel Score is therefore capped at 39 (it reads 20) and the stock is left out of every options screen; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 9k shares a day on a market cap of $30M, with a beta of 2.81 - a high beta, so the stock tends to move more than the market and a strike can be gapped through; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 1 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 13 / 25 | 0% margin of safety | |
| Health | 4 / 20 | Piotroski 2/9 | |
| Moat | 2 / 15 | moat 1.5/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 1 / 20 | 9k shares/day, $30M cap, beta 2.81 |

The next earnings report is due on 9 Nov 2026 (after the close), 24 days away; a 30-45-day put sold today would expire after it, which is worth weighing against the premium.
