MEDIFAST INC (MED) 12-Month Stock Forecast & Price Target Cone

Per the Roarable RQD rating, MED scores 50 out of 100 for a letter grade of D, with the verdict label "Roarable Sell — Underperform / Distribution Warning." The five pillars are:

• Fundamental Cash Engine: 12 / 20. Per the Roarable RQD rating, this pillar reflects ROIC of -10.2% and an FCF yield of 0.91%. Negative return on invested capital means the business is currently not earning back its capital base, and a sub-1% FCF yield indicates limited free cash generation relative to the market value.
• Whale / 13F Flow: 12 / 20. Per the Roarable RQD rating, the pillar reflects institutional accumulation and options positioning. No holder-level detail is included in the source data, so the drivers of this score cannot be independently traced here.
• Insider Conviction: 5 / 20. Per the Roarable RQD rating, this is the weakest pillar and reflects SEC Form 4 and Congressional PTR cluster flow. The low score signals weak insider-side conviction; the underlying trade-level records are not included in the source data.
• Macro Regime Fit: 10 / 20. Per the Roarable RQD rating, the pillar cites a beta of 1.0 and sector sensitivity. A beta of 1.0 implies market-level sensitivity to broad moves, without a defensive or aggressive tilt.
• Forensic Balance Sheet: 11 / 20. Per the Roarable RQD rating, the pillar reflects Altman Z 4.71, Piotroski F 5/9, and Debt/Equity 0.5. These metrics point to a balance sheet that is more stable than the earnings trajectory alone would suggest.

For a prospective investor evaluating the stock today, the composite picture is one of weak profitability and cash generation offset in part by a relatively sound balance-sheet profile. The upside drivers the data supports are the forensic balance sheet and the institutional-flow pillar; the headwinds are negative ROIC, a thin FCF yield, and weak insider conviction. Valuation tradeoffs cannot be assessed precisely because P/E and EV/EBITDA are not available in source data. The rating is a descriptive summary of the data provided and is not a recommendation.

Per the Roarable RQD rating, the Altman Z-Score is 4.71 and the Piotroski F-Score is 5/9, and Debt/Equity is 0.5. Reported cash was $89.3M at FY 2025.

Upstream and downstream dependencies, sector correlations, and second-order bottlenecks cannot be mapped from the source data.
