The Green Baron: BLVT could easily rally 5 to 10 times from current price of only ½ cent per share
Click Here for 52-Week Chart on BLVT
In late December of 2010, we predicted BLVT would rally at least 100% by end of the following month, and it did. In October of 2011, we predicted BLVT would rally big and it posted an 80% gain within days. In January and early February of this year, BLVT rallied over 4 times in value off the previous 30 day low. Now, The Green Baron Report is ready to make its best prediction yet: a move of over 500% from the current price of ½ of a cent.
The Green Baron Report has selected Bulova Technologies Group, Inc. (OTCQB: BLVT) for this "Special Updated Stock Pick" report. We believe strong technical and fundamental reasons now exist to support our position, and we now suggest members accumulate the stock as close to our profile price of .005 as possible. Results compiled from the most recent trade prior to dissemination of this report to the subsequent high will be closely monitored at www.thegreenbaron.com and through email updates to members. We have very aggressive price projections for BLVT and believe the stock has huge upside potential based on several positive fundamental factors.
Trader's Notes: BLVT is current with its SEC filings and it designated as OTCQB at www.OTCMarkets.com. The spread is typically very tight and volume is regularly active. At year-end 2011 and starting off the year in 2012, BLVT hit a low point at .0026. After a large volume trading day in early January occurred, BLVT started to rally for the balance of the month and closed January at about .01 per share.
In early February 2012, BLVT continued to rally at hit a high of .0185 per share. However, the stock drifted lower by the end of month and dipped below the .01 level again. By late March, volume dropped substantially and the stock has been pegged at about .005 per share since.
The market cap at this level is less than $5 million. The stock is trading just below the 50-day moving average and is significantly below the 200-day moving average. A move above the 200-day average should create a strong buy signal and send the shares greatly higher.
Headquartered in Clearwater Florida, the Bulova Technologies Group of companies consists of two operating subsidiaries, Bulova Technologies Ordnance Systems and Bulova Technologies (Europe). The Headquarters facility is under a long term lease. The Company has approximately 120 employees between its headquarters and facilities.
Bulova Technologies Ordnance Systems, LLC is located on 261 acres in Mayo, Florida and produces a variety of pyrotechnic devices, ammunition, fuzes and other energetic materials for the U.S. Government and other NATO governments throughout the world. The Company is registered with the United States Department of defense trade Controls (DDTC).
Bulova Technologies (Europe), LLC executes military contracts from the Company's headquarters in Clearwater, Florida and locations in NATO Europe. The Company is registered with the United States Department of defense trade Controls (DDTC) as a broker which allows for the movement of military articles across friendly borders to support soldiers throughout the world.
Through operations based in Mayo Florida, the Company has an extensive history of large scale Defense Contacts for munitions, weapons systems and combat systems. It has multi-decade relations with the Department of Defense, U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corp, and other material acquisitions of the United States and NATO. The Company also has long existing relations with existing manufacturers and providers to provide subcontracting for materials in armaments and electronics.
The Green Baron Report believes Bulova deserves a fresh look for the following reasons:
- Approved and Certified Specialist - Bulova Technologies Group specializes in the production of fuzes, initiators, arming devices and explosive simulators. Products and services include a variety of pyrotechnic devices, ammunition and other energetic materials for the defense department of the United States and other allied nations throughout the world. The Company maintains ISO 9001:2000 certification. The Green Baron Report sees significant barriers to entry in this market.
- Supplier to U.S. Government and Leading Defense Companies - Bulova supplies its products to a number of leading defense companies. The Company is a registered broker with the United States Department of State Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) and transfers military materials to allied countries. BLVT also maintains requisite licenses with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
- Current Contracts of Over $300 Million with The Department of Defense - The Company has an extensive and long-standing relationship with in the defense industry. The Department of Defense is one of its largest clients with over $300 million in current contracts.
- Veteran Leadership - Bulova's quality products and senior management has many years of experience in the defense industry permitting the Company to have a decisive edge as a defense contractor.
- Quality Products - The Company has extensive in-house testing capabilities in accordance with MIL-STD-810, which ensures efficient and reliable products. The Company conducts complete electrical and mechanical tests before a product leaves the dock. Chemical testing, evaluation, and x-ray examination are onsite capabilities that greatly reduce test and evaluation costs while assuring full compliance to customer requirements.
Green Baron Analysis - Bulova continues to struggle to find a financing package that will put the Company on strong footing. Although there is no guarantee that the Company will secure favorable financing, we believe its huge backlog of awards will support the right group to step up. We strongly believe that Bulova is led by a management team that is likely to succeed in the end.
The current market cap is only $4.28 million. The Green Baron Report views BLVT at this price to be substantially undervalued considering the potential to deliver on contract awards still valued at over $300 million. At .03 per share, BLVT would have a market cap of $26.19 million and at .05 would be $43.66 million. Therefore, we predict BLVT could easily trade up to the .03 to .05 range over the next 60 days with the right combination of fundamental and technical developments. BLVT appears to be way oversold here and is due to wake up - TODAY!!!
History of Bulova Technologies Group, Inc.
The Company started as an operating subsidiary of the Bulova Watch Company, established as a watchmaker in 1875. Post World War II, watch companies were sought out by the U.S. Defense Department to produce military fuzes because of the mechanical time complexities similar to watches.
