Vizsla Silver Corp. (VZLA): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol VZLA · Basic Materials · Industrial Materials · Canada · Speculative
Is VZLA undervalued?
VZLA closed at 3.29 on 5 Nov 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 0.5513. Only 0 of the 1 models that produced a value sit above the price. By our models the shares are priced well beyond what the filed earnings, cash flow and book value support; the "below fair value" Wheel Trade Filter keeps names like this under 70.
The average is built from just 1 models (DCF) - the rest returned nothing because an input they need (dividends, free cash flow, book value) is zero or negative - so treat it with more caution than usual.
The nightly engine files VZLA under Speculative - it is losing money or its Piotroski health score is 3 or lower - which caps its Wheel Score at 45 and keeps it out of the Sunday Scan.
Nine valuation models for VZLA
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 | 0.5513 | -83% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | - | - | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share; no value tonight |
| Graham Growth | - | - | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields; no value tonight |
| Lynch | - | - | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25%; no value tonight |
| GLS Growth | - | - | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year; no value tonight |

| EPV | - | - | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth; no value tonight |

Quality and financial health
Vizsla Silver Corp. scores only 2 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, which fails the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter. 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 0.4/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC -5.9%, ROE -9.1%, ROA -5.4% - with debt at 0.55 times equity and negative free cash flow.
Vizsla Silver Corp. 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 7/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 2 / 9 | ROIC | -5.9% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 0.4 / 10 | ROE | -9.1% |
| Debt / equity | 0.55 | ROA | -5.4% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -3.5% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 7 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 23: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 23 Vizsla Silver Corp. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 2, a real business, not a gamble - speculative (a loss, or a weak Piotroski score); and filter 3, below fair value - trades 497% above our fair value; and filter 4, financially healthy - Piotroski 2/9 (under 6); and filter 5, can repay its debt - debt with no positive cash flow to repay it; and filter 9, not a penny stock - price 3.29 (under $5); Value (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 67% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% top of the sweet spot. It still passes the 25-80% filter, but the Wheel Score rewards it less because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is 42,682 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 5.0M shares a day on a market cap of $1.2B, with a beta of 1.56 - 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.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Passes | Listed options with 1,000+ contracts of open interest and 100+ traded a day |

| 3 | Below fair value | Fails | trades 497% above our fair value |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Fails | Piotroski 2/9 (under 6) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Fails | debt with no positive cash flow to repay 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 | Fails | price 3.29 (under $5) |
| How it ranks | Rating | From | |
