Vulcan Infrastructure and Power Inc. Class A (VIP): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Technology · Software - Application · United States · Speculative / Distressed
Is VIP undervalued?
At 1.26 (close of 16 Oct 2026), VIP trades 73% over the GLS average fair value of 0.7280, with 1 of 5 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 GLS Growth (0.0832) and Graham Growth (1.63). 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.
The nightly engine files VIP under Speculative / Distressed - negative earnings or a Piotroski score of 3 or less - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.
Nine valuation models for VIP
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.

| Lynch | 0.7105 | -44% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |

Quality and financial health
Vulcan Infrastructure and Power Inc. Class A scores only 0 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. 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 1.5/10 is a weak reading: the ten-year history the score grades (revenue, EPS, book value, margins, cash flow, share count, ROIC) has not been steady, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -164.3%, ROE -11.4%, ROA 9.9% - with debt at -0.93 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Vulcan Infrastructure and Power Inc. Class A 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 5/10, insider activity 10/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 10 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 0 / 9 | ROIC | -164.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 1.5 / 10 | ROE | -11.4% |
| Debt / equity | -0.93 | ROA | 9.9% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -114.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 10 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 2: No options
No options are listed on Vulcan Infrastructure and Power Inc. Class A in our nightly snapshot. The Wheel Score is therefore capped at 39 (it reads 2) and the stock is left out of every options screen; the fair value and health figures above are still useful for a plain stock position.
Volume runs at 74k shares a day on a market cap of $18M, with a beta of 3.00 - 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 gives that 0 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -73% margin of safety | |
| Health | 0 / 20 | Piotroski 0/9 | |
| Moat | 2 / 15 | moat 1.5/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 0 / 20 | 74k shares/day, $18M cap, beta 3.00 |
