Converge Technology Solutions Highlights

  1. A steady acquisitions pipeline

With thirteen acquisitions since Oct. 2017, CTS has demonstrated its ability to land attractive deals, steadily piling on value into its multifaceted platform. Recently, the company closed an additional $46.23 million financing, leaving it cashed up to push forward through its long queue of targets.

  1. Powerful momentum

CTS shares are up 179.3% year-to-date, and progress seems to be unfolding at a healthy, steady pace amid three new acquisitions, multiple financings, and strong analyst coverage throughout 2020. As an example of the latter, at the beginning of December, Echelon Markets analyst Rob Goff raised his share target to $4.60 from $4.00, encouraged by the company's acquisitions prospects and accretive growth.

  1. Strong revenue

Converge's steady expansion and acquisitions pipeline have resulted in excellent revenue growth in turn. In its latest earnings release, CTS reported a gross profit of $52.4 million, a 50% increase year-over-year, and an adjusted EBITDA of $14.6 million, a 150% increase year-over-year.

With a $464 million market cap, it may seem too late to join the party, but if analysts are to be believed, there is likely room for growth on the horizon. CTS has an average price target of $4.25 from six analysts
