Acacia Research: Big Upside Remains, But Patience Is Key
It makes sense why investors continue to sleep on Acacia Research, but ACTG's short-term performance belies its long-term potential. A valuation analysis indicates ACTG is worth nearly 40% more than its current trading price. It may take time, but in the quarters ahead, improved earnings and/or positive developments could close the gap between fair value and trading price.

For quite a while before its recapitalization was completed in July 2023, Acacia did not announce engagement in any new investments. Since completion of the recapitalization, however, Acacia closed three investments: two in the oil & gas field and recently in the consumer, road safety, and air distribution spaces.

Acacia Research: What To Make Of The Latest Acquisition Announcement
Acacia Research (ACTG), a holding company controlled by investment firm Starboard Value, continues to trade at a discount to its underlying value. However, a recent acquisition announcement could mark the start of a change in approach that helps to bridge this valuation gap, and perhaps drive the next big run-up for shares.
