OPNET Tech to Sustain Growth - Analyst Blog

Mon, 27 Oct 2008 22:37:00 GMT

OPNET Technologies, Inc. (OPNT) is a provider of management software for networks and applications. OPNET focuses on analytics rather than managing and reporting, where traditional management tools focus. With its analytical capabilities, OPNET solutions provide powerful modeling tools to rapidly troubleshoot and resolve performance problems and even prevent problems before they occur. With encouraging results for its first quarter of fiscal year 2009, new license revenue growth has accelerated to its highest levels ever. We believe that changes to OPNET's sales process are paying off, and the company will be able to sustain this level of revenue and post growth going forward. Growth in high-margin license revenue will also help demonstrate operating leverage over the coming quarters. We[More...]

HITT & OPNT Among Tech Recs

Thu, 27 Dec 2007 20:43:33 GMT

As we look to usher in a new year, we take a look back at 2007 for a moment in the technology sector. Today we are joined by Steve Biggs, CFA, who is the senior technology analyst for Zacks Equity Research. How has the technology sector in 2007 been on an industry-by-industry basis? Can we go down that, real quick? Sure. You know, overall it was a pretty good year for the tech sector. I think if you break it down by industry, you see a few different dynamics. Of course, the consumer ended up being pretty strong all year, despite a number of concerns with the housing market slowing and problems in that area. The consumer still ended up spending and put in a strong performance. I think the one notable weakness early in the year was semiconductors, where I cover a couple of companies: SanDisk ([More...]
