B.Riley initiates Heidmar Maritime stock with Buy rating on strong shipping strategy

Investing.com - B.Riley initiated coverage on Heidmar Maritime (NASDAQ:HMR) with a Buy rating and a $5.00 price target on Tuesday, representing significant upside from the current price of $1.50. The stock has seen a 75% decline over the past year, according to InvestingPro data.

The research firm cited Heidmar’s strong value proposition and solid niche strategy in select shipping sectors as key factors behind the positive outlook.

Heidmar Maritime operates as a commercial, technical, and fleet pool manager across multiple vessel types including dry bulk vessels, tanker fleets, and platform supply vessels (PSV).

B.Riley noted that the company benefits from favorable supply/demand dynamics in the shipping industry, with tight global fleet capacity alongside steady growth in dry bulk and petroleum sectors.

The firm highlighted that Heidmar’s platform aggregator model generates predictable fee-based revenue that helps offset spot market volatility, while its asset-light operating platform requires relatively low capital expenditures, driving steady free cash flow.

In other recent news, Heidmar Maritime Holdings Corp. has been named a B2i Digital Featured Company. This partnership is designed to enhance Heidmar’s engagement with investors by spotlighting its long-standing presence in the maritime industry.
