Investor Day. We attended Comtech’s Investor Day at the new Chandler, AZ facility. We came away impressed not only with Ken Peterman’s vision, but also the management team he has assembled and the vast potential for Comtech as Mr. Peterman’s vision is implemented.
Highlights. While we previously have written about the key takeaways of the Investor Day, we reiterate the points here: the Company’s transformation into One Comtech is ahead of schedule, implementation of lean operating and growth initiatives has begun, EVOKE partnerships open up whole new opportunities, and the transition into a higher margin, faster growing software, solutions, services, and insights business is forthcoming.
