In a report released today, Josh Sullivan from Benchmark Co. maintained a Buy rating on HEICO (HEI – Research Report), with a price target of $285.00.
Josh Sullivan has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including HEICO’s impressive financial performance in the first quarter of 2025. The company reported earnings per share significantly above market expectations, alongside revenues that surpassed analyst estimates. This strong performance was driven by notable organic growth in both the Flight Support Group and Electronic Technologies Group, with each segment exceeding sales and operating income projections.
HEICO’s Flight Support Group achieved record sales, bolstered by substantial growth in aerospace aftermarket replacement parts and services. Similarly, the Electronic Technologies Group experienced robust sales growth, particularly in defense, space, and aerospace products. The overall results reflect HEICO’s ability to deliver strong financial outcomes, countering market concerns about the timing of aerospace aftermarket trends, which supports the Buy recommendation.
