Tyler Technologies, Inc. (TYL): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Technology · Software - Application · United States · Quality / Blue-Chip
Is TYL undervalued?
At 350.11 (close of 16 Oct 2026), TYL trades 31% over the GLS average fair value of 266.33, with 2 of 8 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 (86.78) and Payback Time (540.79). 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 TYL under Quality / Blue-Chip: a high moat score and a high health score together.

Quality and financial health
Tyler Technologies, Inc. scores 8 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, the nine yes/no tests of profitability, leverage and efficiency on the latest annual accounts - a strong reading that passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule with room to spare. A GLS Moat score of 8.0/10 puts TYL among the more durable businesses we track: over ten years the metrics the score watches (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, ROIC) have mostly moved the right way, year after year.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 7.3%, ROE 8.5%, ROA 5.6% - with debt at 0.17 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 5.0%.
Tyler 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 Saas Arrangements 37%, Transaction Based Fees 36%, Maintenance 17% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 3/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded Congressional buy was on 18 Aug 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 8 / 9 | ROIC | 7.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 8.0 / 10 | ROE | 8.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.17 | ROA | 5.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 5.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 3 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 67: Good
With a Wheel Score of 67 - the Good band - Tyler Technologies, Inc. falls just short of the Sunday Scan's "70 or higher" rule. The parts: Value 0/25, Health 18/20, Moat 12/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 17/20; Value (0/25) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 45% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% range the Wheel Score pays full marks for: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is 7,714 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 729k shares a day on a market cap of $14.3B, with a beta of 0.85; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 17 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -31% margin of safety | |
| Health | 18 / 20 | Piotroski 8/9 | |
| Moat | 12 / 15 | moat 8.0/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 45% | |
| Stability | 17 / 20 | 729k shares/day, $14.3B cap, beta 0.85 |
