tic-logoTel-Instrument Electronics Corp (NYSE MKT: TIK)

 This I bring forth as a short term play.

 Let me say that this one is already up. We have a company here with assets and a struggling business model.

They did say this in their latest release: “The Company is expecting continued revenue and profitability growth for the balance of this fiscal year as a result of higher shipments on the U.S. Army TS-4530A and U.S. Navy ITATS programs.”

They also talked about exploring “strategic alternatives.” Here’s that paragraph:

The Company also announced that it has retained OEM Capital as its exclusive financial advisor to explore strategic alternatives, including debt recapitalization, merger, sale or business combination of the Company with a third party with a goal to enhance shareholder value. There can be no assurance that any transaction will occur, and there is no defined timeline for the process. The Company does not intend to comment further regarding the process until such time, if any, as the Company determines that disclosure is appropriate or required.

I see this as a play when shares pull back some. With such an odd statement, they have something going on. Now, if it is positive we could see shares move sharply up. If not… You know how it goes. Play this one with care.
