What Hagerty does

Sells specialty insurance and membership services for classic-car and collector-vehicle owners.

Most income is commission and fee revenue from placing classic-car policies with insurers such as Markel, which carry the underwriting risk, while Hagerty keeps the customer relationship and, through its own reinsurance arm, a growing share of the risk. Membership fees and events add smaller streams. It went public by merging with a blank-check company in 2021.

Moat: narrow (brand, data, distribution). A trusted collector-car brand plus proprietary valuation data are hard for generalist insurers to replicate.

Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
