Vizsla Silver Corp. (VZLA): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score

Is VZLA undervalued?

VZLA closed at 3.17 on 16 Oct 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 0.5382. 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 Sunday Scan drops names like this at the "below fair value" rule.

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 / 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.

Quality and financial health

Vizsla Silver Corp. scores only 2 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 1.4/10 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 -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.

Wheel Score 41: Weak

With a Wheel Score of 41 Vizsla Silver Corp. sits in the Weak band. The parts - Value 0/25, Health 4/20, Moat 2/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 15/20 - show where: Value (0/25) scores lowest.

Implied volatility is 60% 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. The option chain is deep: 223,982 contracts of open interest across all expiries, which means tight fills at most strikes.

Volume runs at 4.2M shares a day on a market cap of $1.1B, with a beta of 1.59 - 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 15 of 20.

The Wheel Score ranks ~7,400 US stocks for selling cash-secured puts and covered calls; it is updated nightly and is not a recommendation. The walkthrough lesson shows how the score fits into a trade, start to finish.
