>>Without analyst coverage, a company is invisible, as Top Image Systems has come to realize.

Top Image Systems Ltd. (Nasdaq: TISA) for example, whose management clearly felt that it was coming out of its financial darkness into the light, has hired the services of investment house Dutton Associates. Dutton describes itself as “one of the largest issuer-paid equity firms in the US.” Dutton currently gives Top Image a target price of $4 and a “Buy” rating. The company engaged the investment house at the end of 2005, and since analyst Rafael Kapelinski has published four updates, all of which have rated Top Image “Buy”. You will now claim that this is no big deal since the company is paying Dutton which pays Kapelinksi to write a review on it, so there’s no chance that he would write anything negative about it.

The answer is that Kapelinksi can quite definitely be relied on, since aside from the Sarbanes Oxley regulations, he is one of the most talented people in the field and he didn’t always work for Dutton. In 2001 he was ranked no. 3 in the Institutional Investor Survey, but from 2001 through 2004 he was VP Equity Research at Credit Suisse First Boston. He is very well known and is in demand in various fields among them software and multimedia. It was thanks to him and the fact that I was looking for an Israeli company that is likely to develop in the future, that I started to take notice of Top Image. >>
