According to Zyberno, Maximus, Inc. (MMS) shows a Value Trap signal — AVERAGE BUSINESS (62/100) with an apparent Margin of Safety of +53.5%, but a Brina Gap of +0.8% reveals the current price still assumes faster growth than the business can deliver.
According to Zyberno's DCF model, Maximus, Inc. (MMS) trades at $59.75 against an estimated intrinsic value per share of $128.63 — a +53.5% Margin of Safety based on Owner Earnings of $218.48M TTM, projected at 23.1% growth for 10 years with a 2.5% terminal growth rate. The Brina Gap of +0.8% strengthens the case: based on the company's ROIC (12.4%) and reinvestment rate (3.8%), the business can fundamentally grow at 0.5% — but the current enterprise value implies the market expects -0.4%. This places MMS in the Value Trap quadrant of the Brina Matrix — a value-trap signal where the apparent discount is undermined by overpriced growth expectations. Zyberno's model translates this into a 5-year expected return of 39.9% annually.
Over the trailing twelve months, MMS generated $218.48M in Owner Earnings. Capital was deployed as follows: $40.56M returned via share buybacks, $68.28M paid as dividends, $46.48M invested in capital expenditures. Reinvestment rate: 3.8%. Owner Earnings have grown at 23.1% annually over the trailing five years using log-linear regression.
