Micro-cap measurement and analytical tools company Mocon (NASDAQ:MOCO) hasn't done all that well since I wrote about the company in January of this year.
It's always hard to know what moves trading on illiquid stocks that are
not followed by analysts (seriously, no sell-side analyst follows
Mocon), but relative to my own model the company has been disappointing
with respect to sales growth, gross margin, and operating margin.
I'm
still bullish on this company. The company has been communicating more
clearly about its opportunities in energy and other "industrial" markets
like water and air quality, and food contamination issues have stayed
in the news. It takes patience and a larger appetite for risk to hold
stocks like Mocon, but between its standalone prospects and potential
appeal to an acquirer I think this is still a company worth a reader's
time and due diligence.
