H.C. Wainwright analyst Scott Buck maintained a Buy rating on Widepoint (WYY – Research Report) yesterday and set a price target of $7.00.
Scott Buck has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including WidePoint’s strong financial performance and strategic growth initiatives. The company’s revenue for the fourth quarter of 2024 significantly surpassed expectations, reaching $37.7 million, which was well above the estimated $28.9 million. This revenue growth was driven by new contract awards and the company’s ability to maintain positive momentum across its product lines despite changes in administration.
Moreover, WidePoint’s strategic partnerships and FedRAMP Authorized status for its Intelligent Technology Management System are expected to accelerate revenue growth and improve margins in 2025. The company is also on track to achieve breakeven earnings per share, a milestone that aligns with management’s targets and could attract new investors. Although there are uncertainties due to government headcount reductions, Buck sees these as opportunities to accumulate shares, given the company’s solid financial outlook and potential for long-term growth.
WYY’s price has also changed moderately for the past six months – from $3.650 to $2.630, which is a -27.95% drop .
