Confident Investing Starts Here:

Michael Diana has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Heritage Global’s potential for growth. Despite a slow start in the first quarter of 2025, the company experienced a significant uptick in activity from mid-February onwards, which is expected to continue. Management is optimistic about a robust pipeline of charged-off loans and industrial asset auctions, projecting sustained annual growth for at least two years due to favorable macroeconomic conditions.
Moreover, while the EPS estimate for 2025 was lowered to $0.20 from $0.25, the price target remains at $4.50, reflecting confidence in the company’s future performance. The current trading multiple of HGBL is significantly lower than that of its comparable, Liquidity Services, suggesting room for appreciation. Additionally, HGBL’s strong balance sheet, with positive cash flow and minimal debt, positions it well for potential mergers and acquisitions, further supporting the Buy rating.
