William Blair analyst Timothy McHugh believes Huron Consulting Group's investment in privately held Shorelight Education is an "overlooked" and "hidden" asset. Shorelight helps universities recruit and educate non-U.S. students, the analyst tells investors in a research note. He points out that the number of students enrolled worldwide in foreign countries increased annually at a 6% from 2000 to 2014, and is expected to grow at a 4%-5% rate through 2025. Huron carried the 20% ownership interest in Shorelight on its balance sheet at $47M last quarter, which is up from $35M most of last year, McHugh writes. The analyst believes the value of Huron's investment could be "meaningfully higher" if assuming $100M to $150M of revenue and a 3-7 times revenue multiple. McHugh keeps an Outperform rating on Huron Consulting Group.
