WaterBridge Infrastructure LLC (WBI): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Energy · Oil & Gas Equipment & Services · United States · Blend
Is WBI undervalued?
WBI closed at 29.74 on 16 Oct 2026, more than 30% above the GLS average fair value of 11.51. Only 0 of the 7 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 7 models disagree widely: DDM gives 2.21 while GLS Growth gives 21.96. A spread that wide means the average is sensitive to which methods you trust; the model table below shows where each one lands, and the Quote page lets you switch any of them off.

Nine valuation models for WBI

| Model | Value | vs price | What it measures |
|---|---|---|---|
| DCF | - | - | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital; no value tonight |
| Graham Number | 11.91 | -60% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 20.51 | -31% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 8.97 | -70% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 21.96 | -26% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 11.06 | -63% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | - | - | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself; no value tonight |
| DDM | 2.21 | -93% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |

Quality and financial health
On financial health WBI scores 8/9 (Piotroski): most of the nine tests - positive earnings and cash flow, falling debt, rising margins and turnover - are passed, which is the kind of balance sheet a wheel trader is happy to be assigned. The GLS Moat score is 5.0 out of 10: a ten-year record that is consistent in some of the metrics the score tracks (revenue, earnings, margins, cash flow, returns on capital) and patchy in others.
Returns on capital are thin or negative - ROIC 0.0%, ROE 0.0%, ROA 0.0% - with debt at 0.02 times equity and negative free cash flow.
The dividend yield is 0.50% with a payout ratio of 80% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Produced Water Handling 91%, Skim Oil 9% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 18 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 8 / 9 | ROIC | 0.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 5.0 / 10 | ROE | 0.0% |
| Debt / equity | 0.02 | ROA | 0.0% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | -5.4% | Payout ratio | 80% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 57: Fair
WBI scores 57 out of 100 on the Wheel Score (Fair band, 50-64): a usable but unremarkable fit for the wheel strategy. The parts: Value 0/25, Health 18/20, Moat 8/15, Premium 19/20, Stability 13/20. Value (0/25) is where the points are missing.
Implied volatility is 65% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - above the 60% ceiling of the sweet spot. Premiums are large, but the Wheel Score tapers the Premium points (19 of 20) because volatility this high usually comes with a reason. Chain open interest is 3,489 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 544k shares a day on a market cap of $1.4B, with a beta of 0.20 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 13 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -158% margin of safety | |
| Health | 18 / 20 | Piotroski 8/9 | |
| Moat | 8 / 15 | moat 5.0/10 | |
| Premium | 19 / 20 | implied volatility 65% | |
| Stability | 13 / 20 | 544k shares/day, $1.4B cap, beta 0.20 |
