HUB GROUP INC-CL A

Hub Group

Hub Group ranks among the largest providers of rail intermodal service. Roughly 60% of consolidated revenue comes from Hub's intermodal and transportation solutions division. ITS includes its flagship intermodal operations, which use the Class I rail carriers for the underlying line-haul movement of containers, as well as its dedicated truckload shipping unit. Hub's logistics segment includes its asset light truck brokerage operations, along with its outsourced transportation management, warehousing and fulfillment, and heavy-goods final mile delivery offerings. Hub is somewhat acquisitive in that it often makes tuck-in acquisitions which expand its brokerage, last-mile, and dedicated offerings.

Susquehanna Maintains Positive on Hub Group, Lowers Price Target to $48

The S&amp;P 500 had another bloody day on Thursday, once again dropping more than 1% and officially entering correction territory. A correction is typically defined as a 10% drop from all-time highs and while they're common even in bull market years, the speed of the most recent drop has investors jittery.
With tariff uncertainty and economic slowdown fears looming large, defensive sectors are outperforming. Some of 2024's biggest winners have taken some heavy hits to start 2025.
Markets could undoubtedly fall further from here, but corrections are often ideal times to search for good companies trading at discounts. Some names that have been hammered hardest recently are reaching oversold levels and many of them still have solid fundamentals and upside potential.
Here are five oversold stocks that look close to a turning point.
Today, we'll use the Relative Strength Index (RSI) to find five stocks that have been oversold in the market drop of these last few weeks.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">First Citizens BancShares Inc. </h2>
First Citizens Bank and Trust Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FCNCA#NASDAQ">FCNCA</a>) was a relatively obscure large-cap regional bank holding company until about two years ago, when the firm acquired the floundering Silicon Valley Bank during the banking crisis of 2023. The stock plummeted to $500 per share in March 2023 while the crisis loomed over the sector, but the government bailed out the troubled bank and its assets were sold off. First Citizens acquired SVB's commercial banking business at the end of March and FCNCA shares rallied nearly 200% in just three months following the acquisition.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXd3ULK-TF-W17WlDuTNwPRzPUwN0VReqCqBLL8XiceRB-ZjApRK_JBBlZTL6A5Z3EIPm1K7hbbpQQksBmhZVR_FpeiJUO_Xojj_yzmKjHYZIEHPSwv8TMrX4ewkGQGkWU4j8jIv?key=t8rk1H-mqlcYEfVzNqwDMcYd" alt="" /></figure>
The stock set a new all-time high of $2410 in January 2025 before pulling back in the recent market correction. However, the company is still well-positioned and the current 25% drawdown could present a buying opportunity. The company has strong margins for a regional banking group with an operating margin of 25.3% and profit margins of 18.2%.
EPS growth in 2025 is expected to decline due to accumulating expenses and debt, but the company projects 14% EPS growth in 2026 and the stock is trading at just nine times forward earnings. FCNCA also has a 90.09 Quality score on Benzinga Edge rankings. The RSI has shot up to 56 following a dip below the oversold threshold of 30, signaling a potential reversal.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Amazon Inc. </h2>
Investors were able to purchase Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) shares for less than $90 in late 2022. Those willing to take the leap were rewarded with gains of nearly 300% in just two-and-a-half years. While buying stocks in the heart of a bear market is challenging, Amazon withstood the Dot Com Bubble, the Great Financial Crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2022 bear market &#8211; rebounding to new all-time highs in the aftermath of each event. Today, the stock is down 18% from all-time highs, which hardly qualifies as a calamity. However, quality stocks don't go on sale very often, which could allow buyers to accumulate more shares.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdqQwmyhZdtFKpn17hYN-HdQNvAkydaBJdnHo9mc1DrLRH886szOx39JbtR0uHPOV6T_ym_kurpbMoyRiSxtXcTW-dY400LA7fHS6vsfs-7vyCtDaa71v4l3Tz8DXeMWEX0C1jL_A?key=t8rk1H-mqlcYEfVzNqwDMcYd" alt="" /></figure>
AMZN shares have been triggering oversold readings on the RSI since February, but the stock continued to grind lower through the end of the month and into March. The most recent oversold signal was triggered on March 11 and the RSI quickly jumped back above 50.
The company&#8217;s share price has yet to follow this move, although a double bottom pattern appears to be forming, which would reinforce the trend reversal signal from the RSI. Amazon has a 73.21 Momentum score and 82.1 Quality score from Benzinga Edge and trades at 35 times earnings, which is the lowest P/E for the stock since the pandemic.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Evercore Inc. </h2>
Evercore (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EVR#NYSE">EVR</a>) was expected to be one of the big winners under the new Trump administration as they specialize in mergers, acquisitions and restructuring advisory services. But the new administration has left many of the tight Biden-era FTC rules in place and Evercore's stock has faded in 2025. After hitting an all-time high of $324 following the 2024 US election, the stock had dropped below $190 by March &#8211; a more than 40% decline. However, the Evercore selloff may be reaching an end as the RSI triggered an oversold signal on March 11.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXc3SAk8V45FuO71djvIj6Oj3hPyTstJmIWqmwU0PhsN9OAbZK4oVLyutMtyLtB7EHsUPjYZm1q_9RYob7lQDWL97oVZ8J2tKu2JLciU2TII15wow0LGPkDB09s5uBLpk5PP1RE00Q?key=t8rk1H-mqlcYEfVzNqwDMcYd" alt="" /></figure>
Evercore's underlying business remains strong despite the lack of M&amp;A activity. The company has a 12.6% profit margin and projects EPS growth of over 37% in 2025. The valuation is also enticing, with a Forward P/E of 10.89 and a Price to Free-Cash-Flow rate of 8.47. Evercore's Benzinga Edge scores are excellent, too: 90.41 for Quality and 84.00 for Growth.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hub Group Inc. </h2>
Transportation stocks have been crushed to start 2025 and Hub Group (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HUBG#NASDAQ">HUBG</a>) has been no exception. After closing at an all-time high of $53.21 on November 25, the rail and trucking firm has lost 30% in the last three months, significantly underperforming major market indices. The stock has also triggered three oversold signals on the RSI, most recently on March 13.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXd6kB4UJwfjU4O3e_CWIbZeHBMNRqeNaWLt6wimbAcyyuBzyJYT1t_JszbDCvc0qE1pneXrJcgMbz_loCRyLLSy1CBVjsSwVW4ciM6qvwqzJgPB6tnc9l5J7N5kUKcQ5s7opUBr0Q?key=t8rk1H-mqlcYEfVzNqwDMcYd" alt="" /></figure>
Hub Group is a good rebound candidate from here because the company has solid fundamentals and very little debt in what's traditionally a low-margin business. Hub Group's 0.31 debt/equity ratio is far lower than that of competitors like UPS, FedEx and J.B. Hunt and its stock trades at just 13 times forward earnings. Hub Group expects EPS growth of 14% in 2025 and 29% in 2026, a promising outlook. If the company can hit those earnings projections, the stock's current price could look like quite a bargain.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Abercrombie and Fitch Co. </h2>
Abercrombie and Fitch's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANF#NYSE">ANF</a>) turnaround was a big story in markets as the stock rallied from $23 in May 2023 to $197 in June 2024. The parabolic stock move wasn't just a short squeeze either, as the company has grown EPS by 78% over the last five years thanks to sales growth and margin expansion. However, the stock is currently in a brutal drawdown, losing more than 60% of its value since that June 2024 all-time high. Is the bottom finally settling? The RSI is hinting that this may be the case.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfZxTvj5sPG2RF4N1xq9Z_kz1lDaMmLzBPbkZTuKBBosVT5nz6rKicLjta9TJDpAhIqQTS74HyAzno8qYPhYXU6EU-rg2v9iYlS8XSky7kNhggqbrtUCAoqXt9T1xT0jrxo0ghFzA?key=t8rk1H-mqlcYEfVzNqwDMcYd" alt="" /></figure>
False oversold signals from the RSI have been common during ANF's decline, but the most recent one quickly reversed and headed back over 50, potentially signaling a trend reversal. ANF has strong underlying metrics, like a profit margin of 11.44%, easily surpassing competitors like American Eagle, Urban Outfitters and The Gap. The stock trades at just 6.7 times forward earnings and has earned Benzinga Edge scores of 91.86 in Growth and 83.77 in Value.

<h2>Get to Know Hub Group Better</h2>
Hub Group ranks among the largest providers of rail intermodal service. Roughly 60% of revenue comes from Hub's intermodal and transportation solutions division. ITS includes its flagship intermodal operations, which use the Class I rail carriers for the underlying line-haul movement of containers, as well as its dedicated truckload shipping unit. Hub's logistics segment includes its asset light truck brokerage operations, along with its outsourced transportation management, warehousing and fulfillment, and heavy-goods final mile delivery offerings. Hub is somewhat acquisitive in that it often makes tuck-in acquisitions which expand its brokerage, last-mile, and dedicated offerings.

Decline in Revenue: Over the 3 months period, Hub Group faced challenges, resulting in a decline of approximately -3.7% in revenue growth as of 30 September, 2024. This signifies a reduction in the company's top-line earnings. When compared to others in the Industrials sector, the company faces challenges, achieving a growth rate lower than the average among peers.
Net Margin: The company's net margin is a standout performer, exceeding industry averages. With an impressive net margin of 2.39%, the company showcases strong profitability and effective cost control.
Return on Equity (ROE): Hub Group's ROE is below industry standards, pointing towards difficulties in efficiently utilizing equity capital. With an ROE of 1.44%, the company may encounter challenges in delivering satisfactory returns for shareholders.

<h2>Get to Know Hub Group Better</h2>
Hub Group ranks among the largest providers of rail intermodal service. Roughly 60% of revenue comes from Hub's intermodal and transportation solutions division. ITS includes its flagship intermodal operations, which use the Class I rail carriers for the underlying line-haul movement of containers, as well as its dedicated truckload shipping unit. Hub's logistics segment includes its asset light truck brokerage operations, along with its outsourced transportation management, warehousing and fulfillment, and heavy-goods final mile delivery offerings. Hub is somewhat acquisitive in that it often makes tuck-in acquisitions which expand its brokerage, last-mile, and dedicated offerings.
<h3>Hub Group: Delving into Financials</h3>
Market Capitalization: With restricted market capitalization, the company is positioned below industry averages. This reflects a smaller scale relative to peers.
Negative Revenue Trend: Examining Hub Group's financials over 3 months reveals challenges. As of 30 June, 2024, the company experienced a decline of approximately -5.19% in revenue growth, reflecting a decrease in top-line earnings. In comparison to its industry peers, the company trails behind with a growth rate lower than the average among peers in the Industrials sector.
Net Margin: Hub Group's financial strength is reflected in its exceptional net margin, which exceeds industry averages. With a remarkable net margin of 2.94%, the company showcases strong profitability and effective cost management.
Return on Equity (ROE): Hub Group's ROE stands out, surpassing industry averages. With an impressive ROE of 1.78%, the company demonstrates effective use of equity capital and strong financial performance.
Return on Assets (ROA): Hub Group's ROA stands out, surpassing industry averages. With an impressive ROA of 1.01%, the company demonstrates effective utilization of assets and strong financial performance.
Debt Management: Hub Group's debt-to-equity ratio is below the industry average at 0.32, reflecting a lower dependency on debt financing and a more conservative financial approach.
<h2>Understanding the Relevance of Analyst Ratings</h2>
Experts in banking and financial systems, analysts specialize in reporting for specific stocks or defined sectors. Their comprehensive research involves attending company conference calls and meetings, analyzing financial statements, and engaging with insiders to generate what are known as analyst ratings for stocks. Typically, analysts assess and rate each stock once per quarter.
Analysts may enhance their evaluations by incorporating forecasts for metrics like growth estimates, earnings, and revenue, delivering additional guidance to investors. It is vital to acknowledge that, although experts in stocks and sectors, analysts are human and express their opinions when providing insights.
