SiTime Corporation (SITM): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol SITM · Technology · Semiconductors · United States · Growth
Is SITM undervalued?
At 403.27 (close of 5 Nov 2026), SITM trades 743% over the GLS average fair value of 47.84, with 0 of 7 models above the price. The stock earns none of the Wheel Score's Value points at this price. That is a statement about price against trailing fundamentals, not about the company's prospects - the Wall Street View and the Growth tab on the Quote page carry the forward numbers.
There is a wide gap between EPV (9.76) and Payback Time (86.92). 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.
Ranked against every other company we cover, SITM is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 14, growth score 89, out of 100).
Nine valuation models for SITM
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.

| Graham Growth | 50.22 | -88% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 21.95 | -95% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 53.75 | -87% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 64.43 | -84% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |

Quality and financial health
SiTime Corporation scores 5 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that falls one point short of the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. A GLS Moat score of 3.2/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -3.7%, ROE -3.7%, ROA -3.3% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 0.7%.
SiTime Corporation 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 Reportable 100% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | -3.7% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.2 / 10 | ROE | -3.7% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | -3.3% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.7% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 19: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 19 SiTime Corporation sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 3, below fair value - trades 743% above our fair value; and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 5/9 (under 6); and filter 7, a premium worth selling - implied volatility 111% (over 80%); Value (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 111%, above the 80% ceiling of the Wheel Trade Filter on premium. The premium looks generous, but moves of that size can blow through any strike. Chain open interest is 4,829 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 1.4M shares a day on a market cap of $12.1B, with a beta of 2.88 - 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 weak.
| Filter | Wheel Trade Filter | Result | Detail |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Passes | Listed options with 1,000+ contracts of open interest and 100+ traded a day |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 3 | Below fair value | Fails | trades 743% above our fair value |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 5/9 (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 | implied volatility 111% (over 80%) |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Weak | 743% above fair value | |
| Premium | Weak | implied volatility 111% | |
| Moat | Weak | moat 3.2/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Red Flags | Good | Red Flags score 80/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 1,469 contracts a day, 4,829 open interest | |
| Stability | Weak | beta 2.88, $12.1B company |
