Is WVFC undervalued?
WVS Financial Corp. (WVFC) closed at 19.00 on 16 Oct 2026. The GLS average fair value - the simple average of the 8 valuation models that produced a positive number - is 24.31, so the price sits 22% below it. 5 of the 8 models value the shares above the current price. A margin of safety between 10% and 30% is where most of the Sunday Scan candidates come from.

| 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 | 30.30 | +59% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 58.94 | +210% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 23.52 | +24% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 5.71 | -70% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |
| 10 Cap | 31.53 | +66% | Owner's earnings (operating cash flow less maintenance capex) capitalised at 10% |
| Payback Time | 19.98 | +5% | Eight years of compounded free cash flow: the price at which the business pays for itself |
| DDM | 7.21 | -62% | Dividend discount model: next year's dividend ÷ (10% − 3% growth); needs a dividend |
| EPV | 17.31 | -9% | Earnings power value: current EPS capitalised at 9% with no growth |
| Zombie (liquidation) | -196.56 | -1135% | Current assets less all liabilities, per share: the balance-sheet floor. Not in the average |
| Wall St target | 0.0000 | -100% | Analysts' average 12-month price target. Not in the average |
Quality and financial health
Financial health is average - WVFC passes 6 of the nine Piotroski tests, which passes the Sunday Scan's "6 or more" rule. The Financials tab on the Quote page shows which tests fail. The GLS Moat score is low at 4.2 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 thin or negative - ROIC 1.1%, ROE 5.9%, ROA 0.7% - with debt at 4.40 times equity and negative free cash flow. Debt of 4.40 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 2.58% at a payout ratio of 0%; for a wheel trader holding assigned shares the dividend adds to the covered-call premium, and the ex-dividend date is worth knowing before a call is sold.
Institutional ownership scores 5/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales.
| Piotroski F-score | 6 / 9 | ROIC | 1.1% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 4.2 / 10 | ROE | 5.9% |
| Debt / equity | 4.40 | ROA | 0.7% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 0.0% | Payout ratio | 0% |
| Institutions | 5 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 39: No options
WVFC 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" (39 here). The valuation and quality numbers still apply to owning the shares outright.
Volume runs at 1k shares a day on a market cap of $31M, with a beta of 0.07 - a low beta, so day-to-day moves are smaller than the market's; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 6 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 22 / 25 | 22% margin of safety | |
| Health | 13 / 20 | Piotroski 6/9 | |
| Moat | 6 / 15 | moat 4.2/10 | |
| Premium | 0 / 20 | no option data | |
| Stability | 6 / 20 | 1k shares/day, $31M cap, beta 0.07 |
