HF Foods: Play It Safe With Blue Chips For Now

  • Recent tariff relief in China eased investor concerns, but HF Foods' Q1 double miss signals challenges ahead for growth projections. Wall Street's $7 price target and aggressive EPS forecasts seem unrealistic, given HF Foods' historical margins and recent net losses. Valuation remains a concern, with HF Foods trading at a premium EV/EBITDA versus larger, safer food distributors like Sysco and US Foods.
