Oberweis Global Opportunities Fund Investor Class (OBEGX): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol OBEGX · Financial Services · Asset Management - Global · United States · Fund / Note
Is OBEGX undervalued?
At 36.03 (close of 5 Nov 2026), OBEGX trades 93% below the GLS average fair value of 491.68. That average comes from 9 models run on the latest filings, and 8 of them land above the current price. Margins of safety over 30% are the exception rather than the rule across the ~7,400 stocks we value each night, so the number earns Oberweis Global Opportunities Fund Investor Class the full Value points in the Wheel Score - and a closer look at what the market is pricing in.
There is a wide gap between DCF (10.81) and GLS Growth (1,262.13). 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.
OBEGX 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.

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.

Quality and financial health
Oberweis Global Opportunities Fund Investor Class scores only 4 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. A reading this low means several of the basic tests - positive earnings, positive operating cash flow, falling debt, no new share issuance - are not met. There is no GLS Moat score for OBEGX: 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 moderate - ROIC 8.1%, ROE 10.3%, ROA 8.0% - with debt at 0.28 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 38.5%.
The dividend yield is high at 11.04% (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 | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 8.1% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | - / 10 | ROE | 10.3% |
| Debt / equity | 0.28 | ROA | 8.0% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 38.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 25: No options
No options are listed on Oberweis Global Opportunities Fund Investor Class in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 25, 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 $70M, with a beta of 1.26 - 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.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Fails | no listed options |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Fails | a fund or note, not a company |
| 3 | Below fair value | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 4/9 (under 6) |
| 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 $70M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Strong | 93% below fair value | |
| Premium | Weak | no option data | |
| Moat | Weak | no moat score | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Red Flags | Fair | not scored yet - half marks | |
