OPXS on radar, hoping for some news shortly regarding government deals......
Optex Systems Holdings, Inc , (OTCBB:OPXS) through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Optex Systems, Inc. was founded in 1987. It is a Richardson, Texas company, which manufactures optical sighting systems and assemblies primarily for Department of Defense (DOD) applications.Its products are installed on a variety of U.S. military land vehicles, such as the Abrams and Bradley fighting vehicles, Light Armored and Armored Security Vehicles and have been selected for installation on the Stryker family of vehicles.Optex also manufactures and delivers numerous periscope configurations, rifle and surveillance sights and night vision optical assemblies. Optex delivers its products both directly to the military services and to prime contractors.
Customer Base
Optex serves customers in three primary categories: as prime contractor (TACOM, U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps), as subcontractor (General Dynamics, BAE, Raytheon and Northrop) and also as a supplier to foreign governments (Israel, Australia and NAMSA). Although we do serve all three of these categories, at present, approximately 90% of the gross revenue from our business is derived from two customers, General Dynamics Land Systems (“GDLS”) and U.S. Army TACOM, with which we have approximately 50 discrete contracts which covers a supply of all of the vehicles, product lines and spare parts. Given the size of GDLS and TACOM as well as the fact that the contracts are not interdependent, we are of the opinion that this provides us with a well diversified customer pool. This broad base enables Optex to mitigate its risk in this economic environment by not relying on a sole or few sources of revenue as well as providing a broad base from which to build its future business.

Background story:
In March the company completed a RM and began the process of marketing the company with the hopes of being uplisted on NASDAQ the stock fluttered after a massive buy up. Over the next 7-8 months is would continue to flounder there has been no negative news just the wrong plan the value of the company is around .39 per share based off revs and share structure they never had a chance to take it higher so the result was people averaging down and selling into the bid to make an exit after losing money. The good news is these events have opened the door at these levels to grab a real deal company that is currently trading in a channel.
