HEICO Investment Narrative Recap

To own HEICO, you need to believe that its niche in high-margin aerospace and electronics parts can keep growing through a mix of organic demand and bolt-on deals. The latest earnings and acquisition commentary primarily reinforce that story, though they also underline the short term catalyst of continued acquisition execution and the key risk that heavy reliance on deals could pressure margins if integration or pricing ever falters.

The full year 2025 results, with US$4,485.04 million in sales and US$690.39 million in net income, tie directly into this catalyst by showing how recent acquisitions and organic demand have both supported growth. Management’s emphasis on a “healthy pipeline” of potential targets and strict accretive criteria makes the acquisition engine even more central to HEICO’s near term narrative and puts more focus on how repeatable that playbook proves to be.

But while the growth story is compelling, investors should also be aware of how dependent it has become on ongoing acquisitions and what happens if that flywheel slows...
