Nuveen Select Tax-Free Income Portfolio (NXP): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Financial Services · Asset Management - Income · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is NXP undervalued?
At 13.19 (close of 16 Oct 2026), NXP trades within a few percent of the GLS average fair value of 13.67 (3.5% below fair value). 7 models produced a value and they split 2 above the price to 5 below. A stock priced at fair value earns about half of the Wheel Score's Value points; the rest of the score comes from health, moat, premium and stability.
The 7 models disagree widely: DCF gives 1.96 while GLS Growth gives 28.54. 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 NXP 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.
Nine valuation models for NXP
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 | 1.96 | -85% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 12.20 | -8% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 26.67 | +102% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 11.66 | -12% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 28.54 | +116% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | - | - | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10%; no value tonight |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |
| DDM | 9.45 | -28% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 5.18 | -61% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -0.6080 | -105% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 0.0000 | -100% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: NXP passes 2 of the nine Piotroski tests. Our screens drop the stock at the health rule; a low score is often the reason a stock looks cheap on the valuation models. 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 3.2%, ROE 3.3%, ROA 3.1% - with debt at 0.03 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is high at 4.87% (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 2/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 2 / 9 | ROIC | 3.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.0 / 10 | ROE | 3.3% |
| Debt / equity | 0.03 | ROA | 3.1% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 2 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 36: No options
NXP has no listed options in the nightly snapshot, so there is nothing to sell and the stock cannot be wheeled however good the business; the Wheel Score is capped at 39 and shown as "No options" (36 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 507k shares a day on a market cap of $831M, with a beta of 0.37 - 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 | 14 / 25 | 3% margin of safety | |
| Health | 4 / 20 | Piotroski 2/9 | |
| Moat | 6 / 15 | moat 4.0/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 12 / 20 | 507k shares/day, $831M cap, beta 0.37 |
