Fresh Looks was born from client feedback.
“We love your new ideas—but what are your thoughts on the names you’ve already profiled?”
Our clients wanted to understand how we were thinking about developments that could materially change a company’s investment case—things like:
- New leadership
- Spinoffs
- Shifts in capital allocation
- Changes in strategy or business mix
At Boyar Research, our mission is to deliver differentiated, actionable research—not routine maintenance coverage.
That’s why we created Fresh Looks: a highly regarded midyear publication that revisits companies we know exceptionally well—but only when something truly material has changed.
What Is Fresh Looks?
-
Each summer, we take a “fresh look” at a curated group of companies from our coverage universe that have undergone a material change since we last profiled them.
-
Whether it’s a major corporate event (like a spinoff or transformative acquisition), a leadership change, a shift in capital allocation priorities (such as a new dividend or repurchase plan), or the arrival of an activist investor.
-
The common thread: these are situations where the story has materially changed—prompting us to reengage with a company we know well and to remind our clients of an opportunity grounded in our prior in-depth research.
Substantive, Not Maintenance Research
These aren’t routine updates. They’re concise, high-conviction reports on businesses we know inside and out—featuring:
- Updated valuations
- Our analysis of recent developments
- Potential new catalysts
- A clear-eyed view of what’s changed—and why it matters
Each report is designed to help clients reassess an opportunity with the full context of both our historical perspective and what’s changed in the current landscape.

I used Boyar Research for years while running institutional portfolios and have continued to use the service running my family office. I would recommend the service for both institutions or family offices that still believe in the value of stock picking.

—Former Mutual Fund Manager

Boyar Research is tremendously valuable to me. Their research is consistently good and a source for new and sometimes contrarian ideas.
