Mama's Creations, Inc. (MAMA): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Consumer Defensive · Packaged Foods · United States · High Growth
Is MAMA undervalued?
At 13.27 (close of 16 Oct 2026), MAMA trades 83% over the GLS average fair value of 7.24, with 1 of 8 models above the price. The stock earns none of the Wheel Score's Value points at this price. That is a statement about price against trailing fundamentals, not about the company's prospects - the Wall Street View and the Growth tab on the Quote page carry the forward numbers.
The 8 models disagree widely: DCF gives 1.85 while Payback Time gives 16.02. 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 MAMA under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.
Nine valuation models for MAMA
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.
| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 1.85 | -86% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 3.91 | -71% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 9.90 | -25% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 4.33 | -67% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 10.59 | -20% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 9.38 | -29% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 16.02 | +21% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | - | - | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend; no value tonight |
| EPV | 1.92 | -86% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | 0.2546 | -98% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 22.00 | +66% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - MAMA 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 5.6 out of 10: a ten-year record that is consistent in some of the metrics the score tracks (revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, returns on capital) and patchy in others.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 7.9%, ROE 10.0%, ROA 6.2% - with debt at 0.27 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 2.8%.
Mama's Creations, 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 Reportable 100% (quarter Q2 FY2027).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | 7.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.6 / 10 | ROE | 10.0% |
| Debt / equity | 0.27 | ROA | 6.2% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 2.8% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 52: Fair
MAMA scores 52 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 0/25, Health 11/20, Moat 8/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 12/20. Value (0/25) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 50% 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 6,369 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 611k shares a day on a market cap of $626M, with a beta of 0.56 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 12 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -83% margin of safety | |
| Health | 11 / 20 | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Moat | 8 / 15 | moat 5.6/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 50% | |
| Stability | 12 / 20 | 611k shares/day, $626M cap, beta 0.56 |
