MER Telemanagement Solutions. (NASDAQ–MTSL)
Valuation-$3.56
Price September 22, 2015-$1.25
We are reviving MTSL. We were in this before in 2011 and had a nice run for over a 100% gain. Since then a lot has happened. They lost some customers from their legacy business and now have bought a company-Vexigo, that closed in April 2015.
Their latest earnings were for the second quarter ended 6/30/2015 and included a full quarter of Vexigo. Revenues were $4.8 million up from $1.7 million last year and they posted a Non- GAAP income of $.02 a share versus a loss of $.06 million last year.
MTSL does have a potential liability for an earn-out payment of up to $16 million over the next 5.5 years related to the acquisition.
MTSL had $3.5 million of net cash or $.45 a share. Trading at only 35% of our valuation, with 40%+ gross margins, we think this is a BUY.
There are about 8 million shares outstanding and it trades only about 38,000 shares a day.
