The business plan, for example, is pretty conventional &ndash; the company manufactures large scale metal components and equipment. Of course, there&#8217;s nothing wrong with it, but this is the OTC Markets and usually, the people investing in OTC companies are looking for something exciting and revolutionary. Unfortunately, precision metal components don&#8217;t cut the mustard on that front. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong> isn&#8217;t particularly active when it comes to press releases. In fact, outside the PR&#8217;s that come out whenever the company files a financial report, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong> have had almost nothing to announce over the last few years. This, in turn, means that the few investors who are paying attention tend to lose interest pretty quickly. As a result, the volumes have been dismal. Recently, we even started witnessing zero-volume days which suggests that there are some serious liquidity issues.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong>&#8216; performance isn&#8217;t exactly pretty, either. Less than two years ago, the ticker was hovering well above $1 per share and back then, some people were saying that it&#8217;s &ldquo;<em>poised to triple<\/em>&rdquo;. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong> didn&#8217;t triple. It crumbled and it&#8217;s now fighting to stay above the $0.20 mark.<\/p>\n<p>It is moving, though, and it&#8217;s also experiencing some volumes. First, on Monday, investors pushed the ticker above the $0.10 per share mark, and yesterday, after trading more than 970 thousand shares, they helped it reach $0.19. It&#8217;s still too early to say what we&#8217;re going to see today, but we&#8217;ll probably witness an interesting session. A couple of minutes after the opening bell, <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong> is sitting at $0.21 or about 10% in the green.<\/p>\n<p>The reason for all the excitement is the 10-Q for the second calendar quarter of 2015. It came out about an hour after the end of Friday&#8217;s session and it presented us with the following figures:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>cash: $1,464,760<\/li>\n<li>current assets: $5,515,172<\/li>\n<li>current liabilities: $7,384,377<\/li>\n<li>quarterly revenue: $4,374,975<\/li>\n<li>quarterly net income: $206,351<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You might be a bit worried about the 30% year-over-year drop in revenues, but as the company pointed out in a press release from Monday, on a sequential basis, the sales have actually grown by about 12%. Perhaps more importantly, this was the first quarter in a very long while that ended with a positive bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the financial statement is not without its faults. The working capital deficit, for example, is quite big, but the company&#8217;s debt doesn&#8217;t consist of the usual toxic notes that we&#8217;re used to seeing from penny stock companies, which, in turn, means that, at least for the time being, dilution is kept in check.<\/p>\n<p>So, the company does have its traits. That doesn&#8217;t mean, however, that you should place your Buy order without thinking about the risks carefully. As we have seen over the last few years, the market, and not the 10-Q or your own opinion, is the thing that decides <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=TPCS\">TPCS<\/a><\/strong>&#8216; direction when it comes to stock performance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are some things not to like about TechPrecision Corp (OTCMKTS:TPCS).
