Magnera Corp (MAGN): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Consumer Defensive · Household & Personal Products · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is MAGN undervalued?
At 11.25 (close of 16 Oct 2026), MAGN trades 84% below the GLS average fair value of 68.90. That average comes from 1 models run on the latest filings, and 1 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns Magnera Corp the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
The average is built from just 1 models (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 MAGN 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.

Quality and financial health
Magnera Corp scores 5 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that falls one point short of 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 3.9/10 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 -5.2%, ROE -14.9%, ROA -4.0% - with debt at 1.89 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 28.1%.
Magnera Corp 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 Rest of world 100% (quarter Q1 FY2025).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | -5.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.9 / 10 | ROE | -14.9% |
| Debt / equity | 1.89 | ROA | -4.0% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 28.1% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 45: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 45 Magnera Corp sits in the Weak band, capped at 45 because the engine files it as Speculative / Distressed. The parts - Value 25/25, Health 11/20, Moat 6/15, Premium 17/20, Stability 9/20 - show where: Moat (6/15) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 71% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% ceiling of the sweet spot. Premiums are large, but the Wheel Score tapers the Premium points (17 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is thin - 724 contracts across every expiry - so fills at a fair price are not guaranteed; a 30-45-day put may not exist at a usable strike.
Volume runs at 613k shares a day on a market cap of $403M, with a beta of 1.76 - 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 9 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 84% margin of safety | |
| Health | 11 / 20 | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Moat | 6 / 15 | moat 3.9/10 | |
| Premium | 17 / 20 | implied volatility 71% | |
| Stability | 9 / 20 | 613k shares/day, $403M cap, beta 1.76 |
