With Recent Partnership And Revenue News, NYSE American Past Champ (KULR) Requires Your Full Focus This AM
Taglich Brothers Inc. Analyst Provides $4.50 Price Target
October 20th
Good Morning,
I've been keeping a close eye on a past champ that looks like it has been inching towards another potential breakout after stringing a handful of green closes together last week and on Monday too.
When I brought this profile to you previously, there were several factors that were signaling a potential vertical move, and, well, you saw it come true first hand.
Moving roughly 34% (approx.) in just over a month, the profile which appeared undervalued at the time climbed the charts in an impressive fashion.
But that's just the tip of the iceberg on this past champ...
Space: The Final Frontier (And A Potentially Lucrative Market)
While watching the daily news, it seems we are getting closer to commercial space travel.
It was recently that we all watched as Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos, blasted into Space on his rocket company's first flight and more recently lifted-off with Captain Kirk himself, William Shatner.
Shortly before that, Richard Branson, Virgin Galactic founder, shot off into space himself in a rocket he helped fund.
And obviously we've been reading about SpaceX and Elon Musk for years.
To say the least, the past year has been a landmark moment for the commercial space industry.
Millions are enthralled by the thought of leaving the surface and testing the waters of space travel. Granted, while space tourism companies aren’t quite ready to send folks into space just yet, the industry is seeing demand.
In fact, according to analysts at Cowen, “39% of people with a net worth of more than $5Mn are interested in paying at least $250k for a flight.”(1)
Better, by 2040, Morgan Stanley believes the industry could be worth about $1Tn.(2)
So why do I bring all this up?
One NYSE American whose TRS technology was chosen by NASA to safely ship and store batteries aboard the International Space Station is being overlooked, but maybe not for much longer.
And, with the ever growing number of Electric Vehicles (EVs) on the road today, companies are looking for more efficient, safe and effective battery options.
That's why I want you to turn your attention to this company ASAP:
KULR Technology Group, Inc. (KULR)

Over the summer the brokerage firm, Taglich Brothers, Inc., upgraded their price target on KULR to $4.50.
From Tuesday's closing valuation of $2.00+, that provides this NYSE American profile with upside potential of over 100%+ from that level.
Here are some key highlights from their report:
- We are maintaining coverage of KULR Technology Group, Inc. with a Speculative Buy rating and raising our twelve-month price target to $4.50 per share from $3.50 based on our 2022 sales projection and a higher multiple.
- We believe the company is well positioned for strong growth as the shift to electric vehicles and 5G technology should be significant growth drivers fueling demand for its products. KULR’s recent partnership with the Andretti Technologies should open many doors in the electric vehicle and automotive markets.
- According to MarketsandMarkets, the electric vehicles market is projected to reach approximately 27 million units by 2030 from an estimated 3.3 million units in 2019 for annualized growth of 21.1%. Grandview Research projects the global 5G services market at $41.5Bn in 2020, expanding annually by 43.9% from 2021 to 2027.
- KULR’s revenue increased more than five-fold in 1Q21 while the company continued to make significant in-vest-ments in an effort to expand its business in 2021 and beyond. In 2Q21, the company raised capital of $6.5Mn, which should aid in its commercialization efforts.
- For 2021, we project a more than 3-fold increase in revenue to $2.3Mn from $624k in 2020 and a loss of $(0.04) per share. We previously projected revenue of $2Mn and a loss of $(0.02) per share. The increase in our revenue projection reflects 1Q21 results and continued organic growth. Our loss projection has widened due primarily to higher SG&A expenses than originally anticipated.
- For 2022, we project a 19.7% increase in revenue to $2.8Mn and the loss narrowing to $(0.03) per share. The increase in our revenue projection should be driven by continued organic growth. Our loss projection has widened due primarily to higher SG&A expenses than originally anticipated.
- KULR reported (5/21/21) 1Q21 revenue increased to $418k from $78k in 1Q20 and a loss of $(0.02) per share versus $(0.01) per share in 1Q20. We projected revenue of $300k and a loss of $(0.01) per share.

KULR Technology Group Receives Special Permit from the U.S. Department of Transportation Authorizing Transport of Damaged, Defective, or Recalled (DDR) Batteries
A trio of recently granted DoT special permits enables the Company to strategically pursue regulatory markets ranging from shipping prototype batteries to end of life battery management
SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 28, 2021 / KULR Technology Group Inc. (NYSE American:KULR) (the "Company" or "KULR"), a leading developer of next-generation lithium-ion battery safety and thermal management technologies, announced today it received a special permit, its third in two months, from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DoT) authorizing commerce transportation of damaged, defective, or recalled (DDR) lithium ion cells, batteries, or lithium metal cells contained in or packed with KULR's proprietary Thermal Runaway Shield (TRS) packaging.
The granting of the recent DDR special permit marks a key strategic step for KULR as it continues to push its Thermal Runaway Shield as an integrated design solution providing total battery safety for more efficient battery systems, increased sustainability, and end of life battery management. The Company's solutions have been proven by various government testing authorities to stop or mitigate the impacts of dangerous lithium-ion battery failures known as thermal runaway which can occur during transportation of batteries.
The granting of KULR's third special DoT permit validates the commercial and regulatory viability of its passive propagation resistant (PPR) solution. Previously, in October 2020, the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported KULR's design solutions could stop fires and explosions in lithium-ion battery packs, and provided additional insights on the future of safe battery technology. In 2019, KULR provided NASA with a solution to protect laptop computer battery packs aboard the International Space Station (ISS).
"Damaged, defective, or recalled lithium-ion batteries can present tremendous safety risks to people, property, and the environment if they are improperly handled, stored or disposed of," said Keith Cochran, KULR President & COO. "We live in an increasingly portable and digital society in which we routinely see rechargeable batteries or battery centric products suffer damage or defect which require a recall. We've seen it with children's toys, scooters, laptops, mobile phones, online shopping, and of course electric vehicles. With further adoption of Li-ion technology, we believe there will be an ever-increasing need for KULR's Thermal Runaway Shield (TRS) packaging. Our DDR special permit, along with our recently attained prototype battery special permit and recycling special permit, strategically establishes KULR as an end to end provider of safe battery shipping solutions, no matter the mode of transfer."
The special permit, issued as DOT-SP 21193, was granted on July 23rd, 2021.
