AMG Frontier Small Cap Growth Fund - Class N (MSSVX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol MSSVX · Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · Fund / Note
Is MSSVX undervalued?
At 9.20 (close of 5 Nov 2026), MSSVX trades 60% over the GLS average fair value of 5.75, with 0 of 1 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 average is built from just 1 models (DDM) - 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.
MSSVX looks like a fund, note or preferred share rather than an operating company, so the nightly engine files it under Fund / Note: the valuation models are not built for it, and its Wheel Score is capped at 45.
Nine valuation models for MSSVX
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 |

Quality and financial health
No Piotroski health score is on file for MSSVX (the statements it needs were not available), so the Health part of the Wheel Score counts it at half marks - 10 of 20 - rather than marking the stock down for missing data. There is no GLS Moat score for MSSVX: funds, notes and second share lines get none, and so does a company with fewer than two years of accounts on file. The Moat part of the Wheel Score is zero.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -4.5%, ROE -4.5%, ROA -4.5% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is high at 4.25% (payout ratio 0%). 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.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | - / 9 | ROIC | -4.5% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | -4.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | -4.5% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 11: No options
No options are listed on AMG Frontier Small Cap Growth Fund - Class N in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 11, under 70) and is left out of every options scan; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at - a day on a market cap of $89M, with a beta of 1.36 - 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 rates that fair.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | no listed options |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | a fund or note, not a company |

| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Fails | no implied volatility |
| 8 | Big enough | Fails | market cap $89M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
