Our note on each quarter Frontdoor files

Where Frontdoor stands after its latest 10-Q

Revenue for the twelve months to June 2026 was $2.15bn, up 9.3% on a year earlier, slower than the 12.1% growth a quarter earlier. Free-cash-flow margin rose to 18.0% from 15.4% a year earlier. The diluted share count is down 5.1% on a year earlier, which lifts each remaining share. Against its peers on growth, profitability, cash generation and balance sheet, it grades C. It passes 3 of our 5 financial-health checks. Our cash-flow model value is $108 a share, against a share price of $84.03. At that price, our model says the market is pricing in about 3.9% a year of cash-flow growth for five years, slower than the 6.0% a year revenue growth it has delivered.

Strengths

  • Priced below our value. The share price of $89.30 is 24% below our value per share of $110.
  • Shrinking share count. Diluted shares fell 5.1% in a year, so each share owns more of the business.
  • Beating expectations. Earnings per share beat the analysts' consensus estimate in each of the last four quarters.

Things to watch

  • Results due soon. Results are expected around 4 November; the share price can move sharply on the day.
  • Volatile shares. Over the past year the shares showed annualised volatility of 47% and a beta of 0.8 against the S&P 500.
  • Growth easing. The growth rate is 2.9 points lower than a quarter earlier.
  • Below peers: long-term debt as % of assets. Long-term debt as % of assets of 53.1% ranks 13 of 15 specialized consumer services companies we cover (median 26.1%).

What the price is pricing in

How we got here: a discounted-cash-flow model of Frontdoor, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay with after-tax interest added back ($353M, FY2026 Q2 TTM), growing 6.3% and 7.7% in the next two years (forecasts, guidance and its record), then back to 8.5% by year five, and fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%. Lower and higher growth cases span ~$81–~$150 ; that spread sets a 25% margin before we rate Buy or Sell.

Produced by Fundamentalytics' automated valuation model on November 3, 2026, using delayed market prices. Rating meanings, methodology and conflicts: recommendations disclosure and research disclaimer. General research, not personal advice — it does not consider your circumstances. Prices can fall as well as rise.

Our value per share comes from a discounted-cash-flow model of Frontdoor, Inc.'s free cash flow after stock-based pay ( $353M, FY2026 Q2 TTM, with after-tax interest added back): growth for five years as below (the first two years from forecasts, guidance and the company's record), fading to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5%, then cash added and debt and other claims subtracted. These are model values under stated assumptions, not price targets or recommendations.

Valuation models

We value Frontdoor, Inc. as an operating company, with every model that fits that kind of business. Cost of equity 9%: the 10-year Treasury yield (4.9%) plus a beta of 0.9 times a 4.5% equity risk premium.

Value per share by model
Model Value per share In the combined value?
Cash-flow model (DCF) Free cash flow to the firm (after stock pay, with after-tax interest added back), grown then faded to 2.5%, discounted at 8.5% as the firm rate, less debt and other claims. ~$110 ~$81–$150 Primary model, counts double
Forward price-to-earnings vs peers Next year's consensus earnings per share times peers' typical (harmonic-mean) forward price-to-earnings. Uses analysts' consensus estimates (third-party data), not our forecasts. ~$59 ~$47–$92 Included
Residual income Book value plus the present value of returns above the cost of equity, fading over ten years. — Does not apply: return on equity above 40%: buybacks or intangibles make book value too small an anchor
Justified price-to-book Book value times (return on equity - growth) / (cost of equity - growth): steady-state returns. ~$47 ~$40–$56 Included
Combined value Weighted average of the models that apply: the primary model (cash-flow model (dcf)) counts double. Models more than 5x or less than 0.2x the share price, or more than 3x away from the other models' median, are left out. ~$82 ~$47–$110 3 models

Different models fail in different ways, so where several apply we average them rather than trust one.

Moat

77 /100

  • Pricing power 15 / 20

    Gross margin has been a median 48.1%, moving by 3.5 percentage points (standard deviation) across 9 years.

  • Durability 11 / 20

    Net margin has been a median 10.6%; its worst year was 6.1%.

  • Cash conversion 16 / 20

    Free cash flow was positive in 8 of 8 years, at a median 12.6% of revenue.

  • Discipline 20 / 20

    The diluted share count fell 15.4% over five years; stock-based pay has been a median 1.4% of revenue.

Options strategies

All options ideas

How Frontdoor, Inc.’s listed options are priced, and three ways to use them that follow from our valuation. Quotes are delayed, read November 2, 2026. Check the live chain at your broker before trading.

Cash-secured put

Not offered: fundamentals grade B (needs B+ or better).

We suggest selling a put only on well-rated companies, at a strike where the price you would pay if assigned (strike less premium) is at or below our fair value.

Covered call

Not offered: no liquid call at or above our price target — the model says the upside is worth more than any listed strike.

For holders: sell a call at a strike at or above our fair value, so the shares are only sold at a price the model calls full value.

Collar

Not offered: the shares trade below our fair value: a collar caps upside the model expects.

For holders of a stock trading at or above our fair value: buy a put for a floor and sell a call to pay for it.

General research, not personal advice. Options can lose you more than you expect and are not suitable for everyone: put sellers can be made to buy shares that keep falling, call sellers give up gains above the strike, and results or news can move prices sharply. Chances shown are approximations from each option’s delta. Spreads, fees and early assignment are not modelled.
