The "mini-Berkshire" missed the mark on its third-quarter earnings report, but the stock is cheap.

BOC Aviation's aircraft deliveries decreased year-on-year and sequentially in the third quarter of the current year, which was worse than what I expected. But BCVVF's long-term outlook is favorable, taking into account the increase in aircraft leasing penetration rate and share gains for the biggest aircraft lessors driven by industry consolidation. I maintain a Hold rating for BOC Aviation stock following my evaluation of the company's aircraft delivery numbers for the short term and the aircraft leasing market's prospects in the long run.

BOC Aviation, the fifth-largest aircraft lessor globally, offers significant growth potential due to rising air travel demand and multi-year lease stability. Despite risks like China's weaker demand, BOC Aviation's long lease terms, and aircraft shortage position it well to capitalize on market opportunities. Recent financials show a 75% profit surge, driven by impairment reversals, finance leases, and aircraft sales, highlighting strong operational performance.

Boston Omaha Corporation (BOC) is in the early stages of building a stable, infrastructure-like business model with recurring revenue streams across its core sectors: billboards, broadband, and insurance. The company's strategic focus on underserved, non-competitive niche areas has led to resilient growth and strong cash flow, especially in the billboard and broadband segments. With favorable economic conditions and capital discipline, BOC is well-positioned for continued revenue growth, particularly as interest rate cuts could fuel its billboard and broadband expansion.

BOC Hong Kong (BHKLY) might move higher on growing optimism about its earnings prospects, which is reflected by its upgrade to a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

I haven't been thrilled with this unique holding company recently, but the latest developments are good news.
