Adairs Ltd (ASX: ADH)

This homewares retailer is a mid cap ASX share to buy according to Goldman Sachs. Its analysts are very positive on the company due to its loyal customer base and store expansion opportunity. The broker currently has a buy rating and $3.05 price target on its shares. It commented:

The core Adairs business has a highly loyal customer base, and ongoing store roll-out opportunity: ADH is has a strong brand presence across Australia, a highly engaged and loyal customer base (>1mn Linen Lover members), and ongoing opportunity to roll out new and upsized stores. […] Attractive valuation and high dividend yield: we view valuation as undemanding with ADH trading on 6.9x FY23E P/E

Hipages Group Holdings Ltd (ASX: HPG)

Another mid cap ASX share that Goldman Sachs rates highly is Hipages. It is a leading Australian-based online platform and software as a service (SaaS) provider. The Hipages platform connects tradies with residential and commercial consumers, and also allows them to communicate and run general admin duties. Goldman sees it as a great long term option for investors. It currently has a buy rating and $2.20 price target on its shares. It commented:

Longer term, we believe HPG presents a compelling long growth opportunity as it builds out an essential ecosystem of services for tradies

Temple & Webster Group Ltd (ASX: TPW)

This online furniture retailer is another mid cap share to buy according to the broker. Goldman likes the company due to its leadership position in a market that is in the process of shifting online. The broker recently initiated coverage on the company's shares with a buy rating and $7.55 price target. It said:

We believe the business has a material runway for long-term growth, supported by a large and growing TAM driven by increasing e-commerce penetration which still lags other comparable markets (Aus 16% vs. UK/US 28%/25%), even after a large pull forward in online sales over the last 2-3 years. […] We believe TPW can deliver long term structural growth, despite a slowdown in the near term macro environment.
