Gary Prestopino has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Liquidity Services’ strong performance in key segments and its strategic growth initiatives. Despite facing challenges such as weather-related disruptions and economic uncertainties, the company demonstrated resilience with a 15% increase in consolidated GMV and a 27% rise in revenue year-over-year. The GovDeals segment, in particular, showed promising growth with a 9.2% increase in GMV, driven by new seller acquisitions and expansion in services.
Additionally, Liquidity Services’ ability to attract high-volume clients and expand its marketplace offerings contributed to its positive outlook. The CAG segment also experienced double-digit organic growth in GMV, with significant buyer participation in various international markets. These factors, along with the company’s strategic positioning in a large addressable market, underpin Prestopino’s confidence in the stock’s potential, resulting in a Buy rating.
