Hi Ginandmilk,
Me too, I do not keep a target on SP – If it is undervalued has growth potential with limited downward risk, I will keep the stock. Also, it is too early to fix an exit price for TRX for anybody, we are far from take off, still taxing to the runway IMO.
However, I have a range of figures where I believe TRX will be/should be in next 1-2 years, again these are based on current/future projected revenues. The big disconnect for this stock is its valuation – just 3-4 times of sales!!!! For a company with strong IP, FDA and CE approval, huge growth potential and 2-3 years of sales traction in key markets of US and UK, this is an insult!!
Let me explain:
If you go through the company books for the period of 2017, when woodford and Invesco owned 54% (Invesco - 28%, woodford - 26%) of this company and made the acquisition of ‘Cell Right technologies’, TRX was valued at 20x sales (revenue was 5.2M with 116M Mcap)!!! The projection then was that TRX will generate 70% Y/Y growth figures over time (4-5 years) hence it was classed as high growth stock with 20x sales multiples. You know what, TRX exceeded those growth numbers but when it needed more cash to expand so that it can keep growing at more than 70%Y/Y, woodford collapsed and Invesco pulled all the money out of this stock, so they could not raise money in time to keep up with the growth, hence sales flattened at 13-14M. While the revenue of the company more than doubled from 2017 to 2019, the value of the company collapsed from 116M to 11.7M (10 times!!!) which then ‘recovered’ to 17.5M when the ‘May 2020’ placing happened. So, the poor stock performance is disconnected from the revenue growth or future growth potential of the company.
Despite everything negative that was happening with SP, we worked with top10 health care company for 2 years to develop products and launched one, grafted along to get the CE approval for OrthoPure® XT, educated the market with our Urogyn and dermis product lines. With the latest funding, this for me gives the company potential to grow at 70 Y/Y for next 4-5 years. Soon, we will get valued at 20x sales, when that happens, I will be re-evaluating my position here, so 20x sales is my target valuation for this company.
It could be 35M in sales by Q12023 or 50M in sales by Q12024!
Best
