Is SOGP undervalued?
SOGP has a margin of safety of 95%: the stock closed at 10.51 on 5 Nov 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 208.21. 9 of the 9 valuation models that produced a number sit above the price. Our scans treat a discount this large as a strong starting point for a cash-secured put, not as a verdict - the fair value is a model output, and a wide gap can mean the models are missing something the market knows.
There is a wide gap between DDM (19.17) and GLS Growth (486.63). 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, neither cheapness nor growth clearly wins for SOGP, so the nightly engine files it under Blend (value score 95, growth score 88, out of 100). It also carries the Income tag (Income = a dividend yield of 4% or more).
Nine valuation models for SOGP
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.

| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 21.16 | +101% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 49.77 | +374% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 454.68 | +4226% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 198.72 | +1791% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 486.63 | +4530% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 187.71 | +1686% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 367.69 | +3398% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 19.17 | +82% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 88.32 | +740% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | 11.58 | +10% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |

Quality and financial health
Sound Group Inc. 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. A GLS Moat score of 3.8/10 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 high - ROIC 51.7%, ROE 54.9%, ROA 29.4% - with debt at 0.06 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is high at 12.40% (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. Revenue comes mainly from Value Added Service 99%, Subscription And Other 2% (fiscal year FY2025).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 51.7% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.8 / 10 | ROE | 54.9% |
| Debt / equity | 0.06 | ROA | 29.4% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 35: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 35 Sound Group Inc. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 1, options that actually trade - options too quiet (405 open interest, 39 a day); and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 4/9 (under 6); and filter 7, a premium worth selling - implied volatility 86% (over 80%); and filter 8, big enough - market cap $46M (under $1.0B); Option trading (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 86%, 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 thin - 405 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 10k shares a day on a market cap of $46M, with a beta of 2.49 - 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 | Fails | options too quiet (405 open interest, 39 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 | 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 | implied volatility 86% (over 80%) |
| 8 | Big enough | Fails | market cap $46M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Strong | 95% below fair value | |
| Premium | Fair | implied volatility 86% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 3.8/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Red Flags | Strong | Red Flags score 90/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 39 contracts a day, 405 open interest | |
| Stability | Weak | beta 2.49, $46M company |
