WisdomTree, Inc. (WT): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Financial Services · Asset Management · United States · High Growth
Is WT undervalued?
WisdomTree, Inc. (WT) closed at 21.08 on 16 Oct 2026, close to the GLS average fair value of 19.68 (7.1% above fair value). 3 of the 9 models that produced a number sit above the price, 6 below - the market and our models roughly agree. With little margin of safety either way, the case for or against the stock rests on the quality numbers and the option premium rather than on price.
There is a wide gap between DDM (1.77) and Payback Time (54.14). 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 WT under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.
Nine valuation models for WT
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 | 14.30 | -32% | Present value of the projected free cash flows, discounted at the cost of capital |
| Graham Number | 6.08 | -71% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 19.21 | -9% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 7.43 | -65% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 34.50 | +64% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 33.43 | +59% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 54.14 | +157% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 1.77 | -92% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 6.26 | -70% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -4.01 | -119% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 26.05 | +24% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
WisdomTree, Inc. scores 6 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score: a middling result that passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. Some of the nine tests on profitability, leverage and efficiency are failed, so the accounts are worth a look before selling a put on the name. On durability WT scores 6.4/10 on the GLS Moat - a middle reading; the Scorecard on the Quote page's Financials tab shows which ten-year lines are steady and which are not.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 8.0%, ROE 26.4%, ROA 7.2% - with debt at 2.31 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 6.1%. Debt of 2.31 times equity is on the high side for the sector and is worth checking against the cash flow before treating the stock as a long-term hold.
The dividend yield is 0.57% with a payout ratio of 22% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Investment Advisory, Management and Adm… 93%, Investment Performance 4%, Management Fees 3% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 10/10, insider activity 1/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 8.0% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 6.4 / 10 | ROE | 26.4% |
| Debt / equity | 2.31 | ROA | 7.2% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 6.1% | Payout ratio | 22% |
| Institutions | 10 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 1 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 70: Good
With a Wheel Score of 70 - the Good band - WisdomTree, Inc. clears the Sunday Scan's "70 or higher" rule. The parts: Value 10/25, Health 13/20, Moat 10/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 18/20; Value (10/25) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 49% 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. Chain open interest is 29,301 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 2.5M shares a day on a market cap of $3.2B, with a beta of 1.17; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 18 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 10 / 25 | -7% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 10 / 15 | moat 6.4/10 | |
| Premium | 20 / 20 | implied volatility 49% | |
| Stability | 18 / 20 | 2.5M shares/day, $3.2B cap, beta 1.17 |
