BTIG Sticks to Its Hold Rating for Tactile Systems Technology (TCMD)


BTIG analyst Sean Lavin maintained a Hold rating on Tactile Systems Technology (NASDAQ: TCMD) on August 6. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $57.66, close to its 52-week high of $59.78.

Lavin observed:

“in recent quarters, TCMD posted a small revenue beat of $2.5M and lifted annual sales guidance by $1.5M to $134.5M at the midpoint of the range. However, consensus was already calling for $134.5M in 2018 sales before this quarter’s beat. We think with shares trading in the high-$40s, the Q2 beat and minor raise may only be enough to keep shares at their current price level. We think investors might like to see a bit more aggression though the conservative strategy has worked for shares since the IPO. TCMD also announced a new CFO; we don’t foresee any significant shift in corporate strategy with the leadership transition. In our view, Flexitouch sales are being propelled forward by sustainable drivers, including a larger salesforce, a more productive targeting/selling strategy, and the launch of Flexitouch Plus.”
