(ISSC) StockDhierin BechaiInvesting Group LeaderCommentsSummaryInnovative Aerosystems remains a strong buy, with a $24.20 price target and 13% upside despite a 240% return since initial coverage.Q1 sales rose 36.5% to $21.8M, driven by commercial aftermarket and inorganic growth, with gross margins at 54.5% but expected to normalize to the mid-40s.ISSC's growth strategy blends organic software-driven tailwinds and M&A, notably the S-TEC Model 3100 Autopilot acquisition, supported by a potential $100M capital raise.Margins are set to decline as F-16 transition normalizes, but strong cash conversion and undervaluation versus peers reinforce the long-term investment case.Looking for more investing ideas like this one?
