There are a number of great companies in the market today. By using the ModernGraham Valuation Model, I've selected the five most undervalued companies reviewed by ModernGraham. Each company has been determined to be suitable for Defensive Investor according to the ModernGraham approach. This is a sample of one screen that is included in ModernGraham Stocks & Screens, which is available for premium subscribers.  Defensive Investors are defined as investors who are not able or willing to do substantial research into individual investments, and therefore need to select only the companies that present the least amount of risk. Enterprising Investors, on the other hand, are able to do substantial research and can select companies that present a moderate (though still low) amount of risk. Each company suitable for the Defensive Investor is also suitable for Enterprising Investors.

Be sure to check out the history of this screen to find out which companies have been selected in the past!

Twenty-First Century Fox (FOXA)

Twenty-First Century Fox Inc. is suitable for both the Defensive Investor and the Enterprising Investor.  The Defensive Investor is only concerned by the lack of earnings stability over the last ten years, while the Enterprising Investor's only concern is the level of debt relative to the net current assets.  As a result, all value investors following the ModernGraham approach based on Benjamin Graham's methods should feel very comfortable proceeding with further research and comparing the company to other opportunities.  From a valuation side of things, the company appears to be undervalued after growing its EPSmg (normalized earnings) from $0.66 in 2011 to an estimated $2.62 for 2015.  This level of demonstrated growth is greater than the market's implied estimate of 2.33% earnings growth and leads the ModernGraham valuation model, based on Benjamin Graham's formula, to return an estimate of intrinsic value above the price.  (See the full valuation)
