Bruce Jackson has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors impacting Harvard Bioscience. Despite the challenging market conditions in the healthcare sector, particularly in the Life Science Tools segment, Harvard Bioscience has shown resilience. The company exceeded revenue expectations in the second quarter, achieving $20.5 million against a consensus estimate of $18.8 million, and managed to increase its Adjusted EBITDA slightly year-over-year to $1.5 million.
Furthermore, the company’s strategic focus on MEAs and Organoids in the Americas has shown sequential growth, and European sales have benefited from increased pharma sales. Although there are challenges, such as tariff concerns in APAC and budget uncertainties in academic markets, the potential for sector recovery and improved profitability in the future supports the Buy rating. Bruce Jackson’s price target for HBIO is set at $2 per share, reflecting a belief in the company’s ability to capitalize on easier comparisons and profitability improvements by 2026.
