$84.96−1.25 (−1.4%)

Gekko Brief

AI summary

Hamilton Lane draws attention this week from a run of analyst and stock-screening coverage, including a "Great Dividend Stock" mention, a Peter Lynch GARP screen citing strong EPS growth and a low PEG ratio, and a piece describing it as a new Strong Buy stock. These follow the 4 August results, when the company reported an asset footprint exceeding $1 trillion, AUM of $146 billion, fee-earning AUM of $83.7 billion, and fee-related earnings of $124 million, alongside GAAP EPS of $1.93 against a $1.53 estimate. A filing also showed Corient Private Wealth LP trimming its stake by 14,400 shares.

The stock closed at $84.96, down 1.4%, and sits below both its 50-day average of $96.16 and 200-day average of $104.06, with the shorter average beneath the longer one. The GekkoIndex reads 70.5, placing HLNE in the Buying zone, while price stands 23.4% below Gekko Fair Value of $110.89. One-month performance shows a 20.5% decline, though the three-month return remains positive at 13.3%.

The next earnings date falls on 3 November, 35 days out, beyond a typical 20-day holding window; past reports show 7 beats in 8 quarters and an average absolute reaction of 6.5%. No insider, Congress, or unusual options activity appears in the recent windows. Seasonally, the next 20 trading days have averaged a 3% decline over 5 years, rising in 2 of them, a pattern worth noting alongside the wide gap to Gekko Fair Value.
