Technology · Information Technology Services · United States · Blend
Is NSIT undervalued?
Insight Enterprises, Inc. (NSIT) closed at 158.90 on 16 Oct 2026, close to the GLS average fair value of 146.13 (8.7% above fair value). 3 of the 8 models that produced a number sit above the price, 5 below - the market and our models roughly agree. With little margin of safety either way, the case for or against the stock rests on the quality numbers and the option premium rather than on price.
The 8 models disagree widely: Lynch gives 13.64 while 10 Cap gives 346.73. 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.

Nine valuation models for NSIT
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 | 184.06 | +16% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 91.80 | -42% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 84.92 | -47% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 13.64 | -91% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 53.62 | -66% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 346.73 | +118% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 316.39 | +99% | 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 | 77.87 | -51% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -36.67 | -123% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 143.33 | -10% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - NSIT passes 6 of the nine Piotroski tests, which passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is low at 4.0 out of 10, which says the ten-year record of revenue, earnings, margins and returns on capital has been inconsistent - growth and shocks rather than steady compounding.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 4.9%, ROE 9.5%, ROA 1.7% - with debt at 0.96 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 9.1%.
Insight Enterprises, 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 Hardware Net Sales 60%, Service 21%, Software Net Sales 19% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 2/10 and Congressional trading 7/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 4.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.0 / 10 | ROE | 9.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.96 | ROA | 1.7% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 9.1% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 2 · 7 / 10 |
Wheel Score 63: Fair
NSIT scores 63 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 9/25, Health 13/20, Moat 6/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 15/20. Value (9/25) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 51% 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 thin - 663 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 498k shares a day on a market cap of $4.7B, with a beta of 1.06; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 15 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 9 / 25 | -9% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 6 / 15 | moat 4.0/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 51% | |
| Stability | 15 / 20 | 498k shares/day, $4.7B cap, beta 1.06 |
