Roth Capital Sticks to Its Buy Rating for Mitek Systems Inc (MITK)


Roth Capital analyst Darren Aftahi maintained a Buy rating on Mitek Systems Inc (MITK) today and set a price target of $13.50. The company’s shares opened today at $11.77.

Aftahi wrote:

“We expect mostly in-line results when MITK reports F2Q19 results AMC on 5/1. With slightly easier topline comps, we expect ~35% topline growth (+1,000bps y/y), before tougher comps roll in during 2H19, but should see profit margins improve sequentially each quarter. We look for updates on Mobile ID growth, SaaS growth (y/y and q/q) and progress on its Agilisys partnership. However, commentary around M&A (or lack thereof) may determine the stock’s direction post call.”

According to TipRanks.com, Aftahi is a 5-star analyst with an average return of 12.2% and a 52.3% success rate. Aftahi covers the Technology sector, focusing on stocks such as Digital Turbine Inc, The Meet Group Inc, and Veritone Inc.
