VivoSim Labs, Inc. (VIVS): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score

Is VIVS undervalued?
VivoSim Labs, Inc. (VIVS) closed at 0.1609 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 1 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 1.68, which puts the price 90% below it. 1 of the 1 models value the shares above the current price. A gap this wide is rare in our universe of ~7,400 US stocks and is exactly what the Value part of the Wheel Score rewards; it is also where the question "why is it this cheap?" matters most.
Only 1 of the nine models produced a value (DCF); the others need a dividend, positive free cash flow or positive book value the company does not have yet, so the average rests on a narrow base.
The nightly engine files VIVS 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 VIVS
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.

Quality and financial health
Financial health is weak: VIVS passes 1 of the nine Piotroski tests. Our screens drop the stock at the health rule; a low score is often the reason a stock looks cheap on the valuation models. The GLS Moat score is low at 1.8 out of 10, which says the ten-year record of revenue, earnings, margins and returns on capital has been inconsistent - growth and shocks rather than steady compounding.
Returns on capital are high - ROIC 2123.2%, ROE 1259.6%, ROA -187.4% - with debt at -0.41 times equity and negative free cash flow.
VivoSim Labs, 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 Royalty 100% (quarter Q1 FY2027).
Institutional ownership scores 1/10, insider activity 7/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 1 / 9 | ROIC | 2123.2% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 1.8 / 10 | ROE | 1259.6% |
| Debt / equity | -0.41 | ROA | -187.4% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -379.3% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 1 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 7 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 38: No options
VIVS has no listed options in the nightly snapshot, so there is nothing to sell and the stock cannot be wheeled however good the business; the Wheel Score is capped at 39 and shown as "No options" (38 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 361k shares a day on a market cap of $3M, with a beta of 1.49 - 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 8 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 25 / 25 | 90% margin of safety | |
| Health | 2 / 20 | Piotroski 1/9 | |
| Moat | 3 / 15 | moat 1.8/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 8 / 20 | 361k shares/day, $3M cap, beta 1.49 |
