Is VOC overvalued in 2026?

VOC Energy Trust (VOC) currently trades at $3.11 per share with a market capitalization of $49,385,000.00. Based on our multi-factor framework, the stock appears richly valued with a Smart Value Score of 45/100. This score blends growth quality, financial health, and price attractiveness into a single institutional-grade read.

The stock trades at a P/E ratio of 6.6x, below its 5-year median of 7.5x.

Looking at its own history, VOC is currently trading cheaper than 71% of the last 5Y on P/E. This places it in the 29th percentile of its historical range, a reasonable but unremarkable position.

Our discounted cash flow model estimates VOC's intrinsic value at $3.20 per share, against the current market price of $3.11. This implies a margin of safety of +1.56%. The stock is priced close to its estimated fair value, offering limited upside without further operational improvement.

Financial quality is a concern. The Piotroski F-Score of 2/9 flags weakening fundamentals that deserve closer scrutiny before the valuation case can be fully trusted.

Bottom line: VOC appears richly valued on our framework, with a Smart Value Score of 45/100. At current levels the risk/reward is skewed against the buyer. A materially lower price or significant operational improvement would be needed to change the picture.

Frequently asked questions

Is VOC overvalued?

VOC scores 45/100 on our Smart Value Score (Grade C), a weak overall profile. The DCF also shows a positive margin of safety, so price and fundamentals line up reasonably well.

What is VOC's fair value?

Our DCF model estimates VOC's intrinsic value at $3.20 per share, versus the current price of $3.11, a margin of safety of +1.56%. Fair value is the present value of the cash flows we project the business to produce, so a price below it means the market is pricing the stock below that conservative estimate.

What P/E ratio does VOC trade at?

VOC trades at a P/E of 6.6x on trailing twelve-month earnings, against a 5-year median of 7.5x. P/E is what you pay per dollar of profit, and sitting below its own median means the stock is cheaper than usual relative to its earnings.

Is VOC a buy based on valuation?

Our Smart Value rating for VOC is Sell, from a Smart Value Score of 45/100 that blends growth, quality, and valuation. The profile skews cautious, and a better price or clearer operating improvement would strengthen the case. This is research to inform your decision, not personalized financial advice.

How does VOC's valuation compare to its history?

On P/E, VOC sits in the 29th percentile of its own 5Y range, below its long-run median relative to where it has traded. A low percentile means today's multiple is near the bottom of its historical band.

What is VOC's Smart Value Score?

VOC's Smart Value Score is 45/100. It is a proprietary WallStSmart metric blending growth quality, financial health, and valuation into a single 0-100 read, and scores above 75 are rare, signaling strong multi-factor alignment.
