What's Kratos' Secret to Defense Innovation?Kratos Defense & Security Solutions stands as a beacon of innovation in the defense sector, demonstrating a unique blend of technology and foresight that challenges traditional paradigms. From the rugged terrains of Québec’s forests to the cutting-edge arenas of hypersonic flight, Kratos is not just participating in the future of defense; it's actively shaping it. The company's autonomous truck platooning technology, which merges human oversight with AI autonomy, showcases a novel approach to solving logistical challenges, addressing not only the immediate issue of driver shortages but also enhancing safety and economic impact in rural communities.
This innovation extends into the skies with Kratos' significant strides in hypersonic technology, where it has secured monumental contracts, including a record-breaking $1.45 billion for hypersonic testbed development. These achievements are not merely about technological advancement; they represent a strategic pivot towards affordability and real-world application. By focusing on practical, deployable solutions rather than theoretical promises, Kratos is redefining what it means to deliver value in national security contexts, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in unmanned systems and high-speed travel.
The financial and analytical community has noted, that recent upgrades in stock evaluations reflect confidence in Kratos' trajectory. The company's robust revenue growth and strategic contracts with institutions like DARPA and the U.S. Marine Corps are testaments to its capability to innovate and execute at scale. This narrative of Kratos challenges us to rethink the integration of technology in defense logistics and warfare, prompting a deeper inquiry into how we can leverage such innovations to enhance national security and foster technological evolution across industries.

MOBILEYE - A Merger & Acquisitions target! Downside limitedNASDAQ:MBLY - M&A Target 🎯🚘
Here's my thoughts of what I believe to be limited downside on Mobileye with my thesis that they could be a prime M&A target for a slew of Mega-Cap companies with the new administration pegged to be more lax in this area of business. More details in this post. 👇
I personally love Mobileye - NASDAQ:MBLY as a fundamentally undervalued company with great tech. I believe its a great investment with great technicals as well.
My thesis is that the downside is limited at this point due to this M&A realm we are about to step into here shortly.
Jensen just clarified what I had already perceived to be true which is the AV and Robotaxi market is a multi-trillion TAM over the next decade. These words alone increase any M&A price targets of any company in this space to include a robust Top 3 player such as $MBLY.
They currently sit at a 13.75B Mkt Cap after the massive 25% flush the last two days due to no new news. Not actually based off of fundamentals or the technology.
I would put a MINIMUM M&A target on this name of 15B and Maximum of 30B IMO.
A lot of big tech getting into this space and are way behind the Top 3 players in this realm of Mobileye/ NASDAQ:TSLA / NASDAQ:GOOGL (Waymo). It's obvious who would get gobbled up by a deal that is too good to resist which I believe personally is north of 20B as they are already on a solid path forward with headwinds turning into tailwinds (interest rates/ inflation/ china recovery/ auto-market recovery)
My personal theory of the companies most likely to take their shot are as follows in order:
NASDAQ:QCOM - Big chip player who is partnered with majority of legacy car brands. (Did a write-up in the past when they were thinking of acquiring/ merging with Intel in which own 80% share in Mobileye)
NASDAQ:NVDA - Announced there ambitions in this sector and have already been working within it. They've recently lost Hyundai though which tells me they aren't so close to having solid breakthroughs. But I believe they have the money and will to throw at M&A and take short-cut.
NASDAQ:GOOGL - Their robotaxis use very expensive lidars and I could see them make this purchase to get Mobileyes much cheaper technology that can be fitted to cars a lot simpler and with a cheaper price tag.
Others that I'm less confident on but have the money and could become a player: NASDAQ:META $APPL NASDAQ:AMZN
Great post Za! I hope I was able to add something for any Mobileye investors/ traders. Have a great market day off friend.
