What Griffon does
Griffon Corporation is a New York-based holding company that sells its products through two segments. Home and Building Products makes residential and commercial garage doors, rolling steel service doors, fire doors, shutters, security grilles, and room dividers, and also sells garage door openers.

What is Griffon worth?
On an owner-earnings DCF, Griffon's most-likely value is about $98 versus a recent price near $91 (8% below fair value). But TacticScale only calls a stock undervalued when the price sits below its conservative no-growth floor (~$59) with a margin of safety — so the honest verdict here is “Fairly priced — no edge.” Fair value earns its keep only at the extremes, not in the wide middle.
Price sits in the normal range — fair value isn't actionable here; it earns its keep only when price drops below the no-growth floor, or runs to roughly double the optimistic case.
Analysis, not advice. Fair value is a margin-of-safety estimate from a deterministic owner-earnings DCF, not a price target or recommendation. See the full breakdown →
