TaskUs, Inc. (TASK): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol TASK · Technology · Information Technology Services · United States · Class A common stock · Blend Income
TASK is TaskUs, Inc.'s Class A common stock. The classes own the same business, share the same earnings report and trade within a few cents of each other; what differs is mainly the vote each share carries - the company's annual report sets out the voting rights.
Is TASK undervalued?
TASK has a margin of safety of 74%: the stock closed at 8.63 on 5 Nov 2026 against a GLS average fair value of 33.11. 8 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 DCF (8.52) and GLS Growth (68.24). 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 TASK, so the nightly engine files it under Blend (value score 69, growth score 81, out of 100). It also carries the Income tag (Income = a dividend yield of 4% or more).
Nine valuation models for TASK
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 | 8.52 | -1% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 9.39 | +9% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 49.22 | +470% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 20.43 | +137% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 68.24 | +691% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 32.60 | +278% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 43.46 | +404% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 53.71 | +522% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 12.39 | +44% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | 0.6377 | -93% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 9.33 | +8% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
TaskUs, Inc. 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. On durability TASK scores 5.3/10 on the GLS Moat - a middle reading; the Moat Score tab on the Quote page's Financials view shows which of the four parts hold it back.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 11.4%, ROE 17.0%, ROA 9.7% - with debt at 0.50 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 12.7%.
The dividend yield is high at 42.29% (payout ratio 977%) - a payout above 100% of earnings, which is not covered by profits. 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 Digital Customer Experience 73%, AI Services 27% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 4/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 5 / 9 | ROIC | 11.4% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.3 / 10 | ROE | 17.0% |
| Debt / equity | 0.50 | ROA | 9.7% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 12.7% | Payout ratio | 977% |
| Institutions | 4 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 39: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 39 TaskUs, Inc. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 1, options that actually trade - options too quiet (945 open interest, 229 a day); and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 5/9 (under 6); and filter 7, a premium worth selling - implied volatility 80% (over 80%); and filter 8, big enough - market cap $791M (under $1.0B); Option trading (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 80%, 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 - 945 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 407k shares a day on a market cap of $791M, with a beta of 2.08 - 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 (945 open interest, 229 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 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 80% (over 80%) |
| 8 | Big enough | Fails | market cap $791M (under $1.0B) |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | Strong | 74% below fair value | |
| Premium | Fair | implied volatility 80% | |
| Moat | Fair | moat 5.3/10 | |
| Health | Fair | Piotroski 5/9 | |
| Red Flags | Good | Red Flags score 82/100 | |
| Option trading | Weak | 229 contracts a day, 945 open interest | |
| Stability | Weak | beta 2.08, $791M company |
