What the Analysts think about LQDT
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Liquidity Services stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Liquidity Services stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Q3 FY2026 showed profitable growth: GMV rose 10%, revenue 8% and adjusted EBITDA 30%, while cash stood at $231.1 million with no financial debt. That points to improving scale and financial flexibility. (Liquidity Services)
The core marketplaces are expanding: RSCG GMV rose 19% and GovDeals GMV 9% in Q3, both to quarterly records. Registered buyers grew 9% and completed transactions rose 17%, supporting the case for stronger marketplace liquidity. (Liquidity Services)
Liquidity Services announced its acquisition of Invaluable, extending its reach in collectibles, fine art and antiques. The company says the deal adds scale and services for auction houses and bidders, opening a new avenue for expansion. (Liquidity Services)
The company expects sequentially lower RSCG GMV and revenue in Q4, despite expecting direct profit to hold up. That leaves results reliant on favourable product mix, channel placement and seasonal demand. (Liquidity Services)
Auction participants fell 5% year on year in Q3, even as registered buyers grew 9% and completed transactions increased. The gap raises a question about how effectively a larger audience is translating into active bidder demand. (Liquidity Services)
Capital Assets Group GMV slipped 1% in Q3, and the company noted variability in project timing and regional activity. This makes a portion of performance less predictable, as large projects can shift between reporting periods. (Liquidity Services)
