Profile

Liquidity Services, Inc.LQDTConsumer Discretionary

Runs B2B e-commerce marketplaces for government surplus, retail returns, commercial capital assets, and used equipment. Revenue is built from auction and marketplace services, purchased-inventory resale, search listings, and auction software, with the business concentrated in North America and organized around GovDeals, RSCG, CAG, and Machinio & Software Solutions.

Runs GovDeals, Bid4Assets, and Sierra for government and related sellers; RSCG channels such as Liquidation.com, AllSurplus Deals, and Secondipity for retail returns and overstock; and AllSurplus for commercial capital assets.

Adds Machinio search and Auction Software technology, extending beyond owned marketplaces into dealer websites, inventory management, email marketing, and SaaS auction operations.

GovDeals and RSCG are described as United States and Canada businesses, while Machinio gives used equipment a global search layer. Execution depends on sourcing enough surplus assets, attracting qualified buyers, handling cataloging and logistics well, and maintaining seller/vendor relationships, including a significant purchased-inventory relationship with Amazon.
