Consumer Defensive · Tobacco · United States · Value
Is PYYX undervalued?
Pyxus International, Inc. (PYYX) closed at 2.74 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 6 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 28.57, which puts the price 90% below it. 6 of the 6 models value the shares above the current price. A gap this wide is rare in our universe of ~7,400 US stocks and is exactly what the Value part of the Wheel Score rewards; it is also where the question "why is it this cheap?" matters most.
The 6 models disagree widely: GLS Growth gives 5.38 while DCF gives 71.94. 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 PYYX under Value: positive earnings at a P/E of 18 or less.

| Lynch | 22.18 | +709% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 5.38 | +96% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |

Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: PYYX passes 4 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 2.5 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 1.3%, ROE 8.3%, ROA 0.9% - with debt at 5.52 times equity and negative free cash flow. Debt of 5.52 times equity is on the high side for the sector and is worth checking against the cash flow before treating the stock as a long-term hold.
Pyxus International, 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 Leaf 100%, Other Products and Services 1% (quarter Q1 FY2027).
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 | 1.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 2.5 / 10 | ROE | 8.3% |
| Debt / equity | 5.52 | ROA | 0.9% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -140.6% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 39: No options
PYYX 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" (39 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 0k shares a day on a market cap of $67M, with a beta of -0.29 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 90% margin of safety | |
| Health | 9 / 20 | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Moat | 4 / 15 | moat 2.5/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 0k shares/day, $67M cap, beta -0.29 |
