NWPX Infrastructure, Inc. (NWPX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Basic Materials · Construction Materials · United States · Blend
Is NWPX undervalued?
At 98.15 (close of 16 Oct 2026), NWPX trades 12% under the GLS average fair value of 111.76. 3 of the 8 models that produced a value land above the price. A discount of this size counts as a positive margin of safety in every GLS screen; whether it is enough depends on the rest of the picture - the health score, the moat and the option premium below.
There is a wide gap between Lynch (20.30) and Payback Time (255.81). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.

| Graham Number | 70.53 | -28% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |

| Lynch | 20.30 | -79% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |

Quality and financial health
NWPX Infrastructure, Inc. scores 8 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, the nine yes/no tests of profitability, leverage and efficiency on the latest annual accounts - a strong reading that passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule with room to spare. On durability NWPX scores 6.4/10 on the GLS Moat - a middle reading; the Scorecard on the Quote page's Financials tab shows which ten-year lines are steady and which are not.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 7.1%, ROE 9.0%, ROA 6.1% - with debt at 0.26 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 8.4%.
NWPX Infrastructure, 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 Precast Infrastructure and Engineered S… 100% (quarter Q3 FY2025).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 8 / 9 | ROIC | 7.1% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 6.4 / 10 | ROE | 9.0% |
| Debt / equity | 0.26 | ROA | 6.1% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 8.4% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 73: Good
With a Wheel Score of 73 - the Good band - NWPX Infrastructure, Inc. clears the Sunday Scan's "70 or higher" rule. The parts: Value 18/25, Health 18/20, Moat 10/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 8/20; Stability (8/20) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 46% 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 - 930 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 105k shares a day on a market cap of $946M, with a beta of 1.08; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 8 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 18 / 25 | 12% margin of safety | |
| Health | 18 / 20 | Piotroski 8/9 | |
| Moat | 10 / 15 | moat 6.4/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 46% | |
| Stability | 8 / 20 | 105k shares/day, $946M cap, beta 1.08 |
