Naidu commented:

“HQY reported solid F3Q19 rev./EPS at $70.5M/$0.28 vs. $69.6M/$0.25, helped by a continued uptick in yields (2.14% vs. 1.85% a year ago). HSAs rose 22% y/y to 3.7M, with total AUM climbing 27% to $7.1B. The company also lifted its FY19 guidance (ends 1/31/19), despite making increased investments in a new Chief Security Officer. While nothing concrete has materialized on the Washington legislative front since the midterm elections, we were very encouraged by two new retirement plan partnerships (Vanguard and Nationwide) signed in the quarter which have the potential to increase member interaction and member savings via the most optimal route. Reiterate Outperform rating, $104 PT.”
