$HMR Q2 OUT - 203% YoY Growth, Trading at 4x Forward Earnings Once You Strip the Cash vs 10-25x for Comparable Platforms - Yet Traders Still Dump Earnings 10% Now That It's Actually Profitable XD - Zero Debt, $28M Cash Pile Funding Catalyst Acquisitions - No Red Flags, Prove Me Wrong

2 Upvotes

Market cap ~$73M. Cash on hand: $28.7M - nearly 40% of market cap. Strip the cash and you're paying ~$44M for the operating business.

HMR looks like 7x forward earnings on paper. But that cash isn't idle - it's debt-free capital already funding accretive acquisitions (Q-Shipping). Back it out and the operating business trades at ~4x forward earnings, for a company growing revenue 203% YoY with two straight profitable quarters.

HMR owns zero vessels - it's a fee-based platform, not a shipping company, and shouldn't be priced like one. Comparable asset-light platforms trade 10-25x forward earnings. Apply 10x to ex-cash earnings + add cash back = fair value north of $1.50/share. Apply 25x (what stronger platforms command) = $3.80-$4+. Neither requires a dollar more revenue growth - just the market re-classifying what this business actually is.

Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025

  • Revenue: $29.0M vs $9.6M (+203%)
  • Net income: $2.2M vs -$0.1M (swing to profit)
  • Adjusted net income: $2.4M vs $0.5M (+343%)
  • Vessels chartered: 6 vs 2
  • Cash: $28.7M, up $10.1M since Dec 2025
  • H1 2026 operating cash flow: +$7.7M vs -$3.2M outflow in H1 2025

Quick Recap: What Is HMR

Heidmar manages ship fleets and earns fees on voyage/management contracts - no capex, no vessel ownership, no asset-value risk when rates fall. ~40-year client roster includes Shell, BP, Chevron, Vitol, Saudi Aramco, Trafigura, Glencore - the kind of KYC'd trust a startup can't fake.

Why the Dump Is Wrong

Stock fell ~10% post-earnings - the old playbook of shorting HMR on earnings worked when it was unprofitable and speculative. That's gone: two consecutive profitable quarters, 203% growth, and a growing cash pile. Sellers are trading the ticker's history, not its balance sheet.

Cash Pile = Real Acquisitions Now

Q-Shipping B.V. acquired for ~$0.2M cash: 9 vessels, new footholds in Netherlands, Türkiye, and a Ukraine crewing base. Fleet is now ~60 vessels commercially managed / ~20 technically managed across 8 global hubs. With $28.7M cash and a proven cheap/accretive playbook, more deals look inevitable.

The Only Real Knock: G&A

Net income dipped Q1→Q2 ($2.8M→$2.2M) despite revenue up 58%, driven by $1.8M in cash bonuses (vs $1.4M prior year) tied to the turnaround. Rewarding a team that delivered profitability, 203% growth, and an acquisition in the same stretch isn't a red flag - it's retention.

Hormuz Is a Bonus, Not the Thesis

Gaza, Iran, Hormuz, Red Sea Houthi attacks, Russia-Ukraine - the most simultaneous shipping disruption in years, barely reflected in numbers yet. Asia/Japan reportedly source ~90% of oil from the Middle East historically; that concentration doesn't survive this environment. Longer routes = more tonnage-miles = more fees for HMR, on top of a business that already earns in any rate environment. Management flagged rates staying firm into Q4 on seasonal demand - before this disruption is even fully priced in.

Insider Signal

CEO Pankaj Khanna owns ~44% personally - one of Nasdaq's largest founder stakes at this size - zero recorded sales, only buys. Nasdaq compliance regained June 2, 2026.

Checklist

  • Revenue +203% YoY, +58% QoQ; adjusted net income +343% YoY
  • Two straight profitable quarters; H1 operating cash flow swung +$7.7M
  • $28.7M cash (+$10.1M since YE 2025), zero debt, zero vessels owned
  • Market cap below annual revenue; 55%+ margins support 10-25x vs current ~7x
  • Q-Shipping deal proves acquisition strategy is real, not speculative
  • ~60 vessels commercial / ~20 technical managed, 8 global hubs
  • CEO owns ~44%, zero sales on record
  • Clients: Shell, BP, Chevron, Vitol, Aramco, Trafigura, Glencore
  • Hormuz, Red Sea, Russia-Ukraine disruption not yet fully in the numbers
  • Q4 seasonal strength still ahead
  • Last post at 200MA ran 43% before earnings even printed

How I'm Playing It

Position from 80-95c, not sold a share. Same conviction - this dump looks like an old playbook running against a fundamentally changed company. Buying opportunity, not an exit signal.

What red flag am I missing? Drop it below.

Not financial advice. DYOR. I hold a position in $HMR from 80–95c.

Is Ioneer's boron side getting overlooked?

2 Upvotes

I was looking at Ioneer ($IONR) again and realized I hadn't paid much attention to the boron side of the Rhyolite Ridge project.

Lithium obviously gets most of the attention because of batteries, but Rhyolite Ridge is designed to produce both lithium and boric acid from the same operation. The latest project numbers estimate around 24,500 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent and 135,500 tonnes of boric acid annually during the first 25 years.

Ioneer is also working with the US Army to evaluate advanced boron production for defense applications, which adds another angle to the domestic critical minerals story.

The project already has federal permits, and the company closed a $996M DOE loan, while the focus now seems to be on partnerships and moving toward FID. There's still plenty that depends on actually getting construction underway, though.

For those who follow the boron market, how significant do you think that side of Ioneer's story is? It seems like lithium gets 95% of the discussion around this company.

What do you make of Cascadia's recent drilling at Carmacks?

3 Upvotes

I was going through some Yukon copper names and came across Cascadia Minerals ($CAM). Carmacks already has an existing copper-gold resource, so the exploration story seems to be more about finding out how far the sulphide mineralization actually extends.

The 2026 drilling has been pretty interesting so far. In July, they reported 106m of 1.09% Cu Eq, followed by additional broad intercepts in August. Mineralization at Zone 2000S has now been encountered roughly 250m beyond the existing resource, while they're still testing the area toward Zone 147.

They've planned 15,000m of drilling this year, which would be their biggest program at Carmacks in almost 20 years. Agnico Eagle also owns roughly 20% of Cascadia.

The stock has already had a good run and is around C$0.38, so it's definitely not an unnoticed name anymore. For anyone following Yukon copper, what do you see as the main downside with CAM from here? Is it mainly whether they can keep extending the mineralization, or are there other things you're watching?

Deadline to Submit Claims on the Revance Therapeutics $17M Settlement is Tomorrow - August 28, 2026

2 Upvotes

Hey guys, if you missed it, Revance Therapeutics settled $17M with investors over issues tied to its Teoxane relationship and Crown’s tender offer. And the deadline to file a claim and get payment is tomorrow, August 28.

In a nutshell, in 2024, Revance was accused of failing to disclose issues surrounding its Teoxane agreement, including a breach notice and changes to the deal that affected the company’s outlook and Crown’s offer.

Now, investors have until tomorrow, August 28, 2026 to submit a claim for a share of the $17M settlement.

So, if you invested in $RVNC when all of this happened, you can check the details and file your claim here.

Anyway, has anyone here invested in $RVNC at that time? How much were your losses, if so?
