Likewise, our Industrial Assets segment has benefited from strong demand and a robust auction calendar. As we move through the final weeks of 2022, we are optimistic about the market dynamics and opportunities we’re seeing, and as a result we are raising our target for full year 2022 net operating income to exceed $10.0 million, which substantially surpasses our best prior annual results of $6.1 million, achieved in 2020. We are energized by our operational execution to date in 2022 and look forward to a strong close to the year.”

Heritage Global intends to report results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2022 the week of March 13, 2023.
