SPX Technologies, Inc. (SPXC): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol SPXC · Basic Materials · Construction Materials · United States · Growth
Is SPXC undervalued?
At 153.47 (close of 5 Nov 2026), SPXC trades within a few percent of the GLS average fair value of 145.69 (5.3% above fair value). 8 models produced a value and they split 3 above the price to 5 below. A stock priced at fair value earns about half of the Wheel Score's Value points; the rest of the score comes from health, moat, premium and stability.
The 8 models disagree widely: Lynch gives 26.52 while GLS Growth gives 364.35. 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.
Ranked against every other company we cover, SPXC is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 29, growth score 78, out of 100).
Nine valuation models for SPXC
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.
| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | 205.16 | +34% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 80.85 | -47% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 101.32 | -34% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 26.52 | -83% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 364.35 | +137% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 142.07 | -7% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 179.14 | +17% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | - | - | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend; no value tonight |
| EPV | 66.13 | -57% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -4.46 | -103% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 246.67 | +61% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: SPXC passes 4 of the nine Piotroski tests. Our scans drop the stock at the health filter; a low score is often the reason a stock looks cheap on the valuation models. The GLS Moat score is low at 4.6 out of 10: returns on capital, margins or the balance sheet have not shown a lasting edge yet - often a young company, a thin-margin business or one that has only recently turned profitable.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 8.9%, ROE 10.9%, ROA 6.8% - with debt at 0.22 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 2.9%.
SPX Technologies, 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 Detection and Measurement Reportable 100% (quarter Q4 FY2023).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 2/10 and Congressional trading 1/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 4 / 9 | ROIC | 8.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.6 / 10 | ROE | 10.9% |
| Debt / equity | 0.22 | ROA | 6.8% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 2.9% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 2 · 1 / 10 |
Wheel Score 34: Weak
SPXC scores 34 out of 100 on the Wheel Score, in the Weak band (under 50): it fails filter 3, below fair value - trades 5% above our fair value; and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 4/9 (under 6), and the parts are thin too - value weak, premium strong, moat fair, health fair, red flags strong, option trading weak, stability fair. The score is not a judgement on the company; it says the price, quality and premium do not line up for selling puts on it today.
Implied volatility is 43% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% sweet spot the Wheel Score rewards most: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is 4,976 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 715k shares a day on a market cap of $7.7B, with a beta of 1.25 - 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 | 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 5% above our fair value |
| 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 | Passes | Implied volatility 25-80% (enough premium, not a lottery ticket) |
| 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 | 5% above fair value | |
| Premium | Strong | implied volatility 43% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 4.6/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 4/9 | |
| Red Flags | Strong | Red Flags score 90/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 460 contracts a day, 4,976 open interest | |
| Stability | Fair | beta 1.25, $7.7B company |
