TELEFIX COMMUNICATIONS HOLDINGS, INC. (OTC:PK – TLFX - $0.50)

Revised Price Target: $1.75

Rating: Speculative Buy

 

COMPANY SNAPSHOT

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

 

 

TeleFix Communications, Inc. is a minority and woman-owned telecommunications services company. TeleFix serves the wireless infrastructure development, upgrade, and repair market with a focus on RF design and testing for converged networks and broadband access.  As a Tier Contractor, turnkey supplier, and qualified vendor on behalf of some of the largest technology companies in the U.S., the Company generates revenue through services provided directly to carriers or through these TURF and General Contractors.

The Bottom Line: Just last week, we initiated coverage of TLFX at a price of $0.33 with a price target of $1.10. Although the stock is up by more than 50%, TLFX’s M&A news yesterday prompts us to reiterate our Speculative Buy recommendation and raise our price target to $1.75.

The News: The Company announced that is has signed a letter of intent to acquire VOM Solutions, LLC, a firm with top tier expertise in key disciplines of telecom services ranging from outside plant, wireless, 4G RAN Roll-outs, and DAS Networks.

What this means: VOM’s principals have 60 years of telecom services experience with a specialization in mobile broadband design engineering and implementation, which reflect TeleFix’s sweet spots. VOM brings TLFX serious manpower to enable it to complete multiple large-scale projects at the same time.

Our Take: We believe that this move is both a precursor and great step prior to the Company winning meaningful contracts in the near-term.  In our view, it seals the Company’s positioning and ability to perform and implement multiple projects, including those in other previously non-core areas.

Raising Price Target: In response to this greater positioning, we are reiterating our Speculative Buy recommendation and substantially raising our target to $1.75 per share. Once the deal closes, the Company will be able to win and implement more projects than previously ascertained. We are leaving our forecasts unchanged, pending further visibility.

Bonus: Investors should be aware that due to the Company’s capital structure as a woman-owned entity, there are only a few hundred thousand shares in the public float.  This bonus makes TLFX a great stock to own.
