Sprott Physical Platinum and Palladium Trust (SPPP): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol SPPP · Financial Services · Asset Management · Canada · Speculative
Is SPPP undervalued?
At 11.60 (close of 5 Nov 2026), SPPP trades 43% below the GLS average fair value of 20.45. That average comes from 6 models run on the latest filings, and 4 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 Sprott Physical Platinum and Palladium Trust 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 (0.5289) and GLS Growth (42.81). 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.
The nightly engine files SPPP under Speculative - it is losing money or its Piotroski health score is 3 or lower - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.
Nine valuation models for SPPP
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 Number | 14.09 | +21% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 40.00 | +245% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 17.48 | +51% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 42.81 | +269% | 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 |

Quality and financial health
Sprott Physical Platinum and Palladium Trust scores only 2 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 4.4/10 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 37.6%, ROE 37.6%, ROA 37.2% - with debt at 0.00 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Sprott Physical Platinum and Palladium Trust pays no dividend, so the DDM model does not apply and a covered-call holder earns only the premium and any price gain.
Institutional ownership scores 3/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 2 / 9 | ROIC | 37.6% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.4 / 10 | ROE | 37.6% |
| Debt / equity | 0.00 | ROA | 37.2% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -12.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 3 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 28: No options
No options are listed on Sprott Physical Platinum and Palladium Trust in our nightly snapshot, so it fails the first Wheel Trade Filter (options that actually trade) (it reads 28, 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 974k shares a day on a market cap of $506M, with a beta of 0.27 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; 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 | speculative (a loss, or a weak Piotroski score) |
| 3 | Below fair value | Passes | Trading below the nine-model average fair value (margin of safety above 0) |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 2/9 (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 $506M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
