Heritage Global Inc. Anticipates Significant Net Operating Growth in Second Quarter 2022

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Heritage Global Inc. (NASDAQ: HGBL) (“Heritage Global,” “HGI” or “the Company”), an asset services company specializing in financial and industrial asset transactions, today announced that it expects to report significant growth in net operating income for the second quarter of 2022, related to strong performance in both of the Company’s operating divisions as well as the final disposition of the Huntsville real estate assets associated with its joint venture partnership and the conclusion of that project. Based on its preliminary review of second quarter 2022 financial results, the Company anticipates that net operating income (NOI) will likely be in the range of $3.0 million to $4.0 million.

Heritage Global’s Chief Executive Officer Ross Dove commented, “We are very pleased with our strong preliminary second quarter operating results, which reflected industry tailwinds in both our industrial and our financial businesses. Our performance was also favorably impacted in the quarter by the closing of the two remaining Huntsville transactions. By nature of the day-to-day activities in our industrial business, we are uniquely positioned to identify and purse strategic real estate opportunities. To date, our real estate transactions have proven to be high margin revenue generators, and we anticipate that our real estate partnerships will continue to represent significant growth potential for the Company moving forward.”

Heritage Global intends to report second quarter and first six months 2022 results the week of August 8, 2022.
