Bravatek Unveils Details of Stunning Acquisition Altering companies Complexion
CrucialTrak Inc. – 65/35 Strategic Partner – CrucialTrak is a leading designer and manufacturer of an all touchless, 4-in-1 multi-biometric access control system with patents related to TOUCHLESS fingerprints, hand vein recognition, facial recognition, and iris recognition. CTI’s staff has been traveling around the globe meeting with perspective customers interested in their systems. In a short time, CTI has over $1.3 M in backlog with a conservative sales pipeline of over $27.7 M for the next 18 months. Mr. Don Lee, CTI’s CEO commented: “We anticipate even faster growth over the next several months—as large institutions across the globe are asking us to provide demos and discussing large-quantity buys.” The joint venture will have a first right of refusal on access to all formally reported projects and the right to distribute CrucialTrak’s products in the government, military and critical infrastructure/key resources market segments. According to Mr. Cellucci, CrucialTrak has been tested in an airport in Europe and there is a backlog of Marketing Alliance Partners (MAP) partners interested in purchasing these solutions.
EcryptOne Update
EcryptOne is a stand-alone cyber security email server that has 2 factor authentication. The product has been thoroughly tested and beta results show that the technical support needed on the system is very low and trending lower which means they have a really good handle on things and maintained gross margins close to 90% while being evaluates on Amazon’s webservices platform. The low requirement for support allows such high gross margins. There was positive feedback from the beta testing by NATO and the DoD but these are long product cycles and the company is alternatively looking for bundled solutions to spur adoption. Sales from this channel started at the end of August with a starter $75,000 order that could translate into $470,000 by the end of 2018 should the ECO group expand and purchase an additional 5 treatment centers.
Corporate Governance
The company made a commitment to investors to stay current in their filings now that they have caught up. The latest 10-Q has been completed and undergoing review by the auditors and attorneys. The company expects the formal release within two weeks. Although tower revenue from the HelpComm acquisition is highly anticipated in the current quarter there could be an upside surprise of revenue in this quarter ended September 28 due to the software sales depending on when they recognize the revenue. The goal of uplisting to NASDAQ was kept alive but CEO Cellucci said “it is not a priority … and won’t happen as soon as they think.” In line with an acquisition of such large magnitude the company plans on filing a Super 8-K and feels comfortable that there will not be any issues auditing the books of HelpComm.
Investment Thesis
It seems clear that the corporate cleanup and funding is imminent and the company is going through a rebirth. The new equity partners should be able to issue favorable terms now that a fully operational business has been acquired with tangible assets and sales. The accrued commission of $21.4 million works favorably for investment purposes and earnings going forward. Investors will focus on the multiple streams of revenue and how their respective growth rates. This company in a sense has become operational with this acquisition. The future growth should come from tower sales, software, and consulting. Once investment comes in CEO Cellucci indicated he would rapidly grow revenues. His vision is a security platform company with many verticals. He said “things are turning at Bravatek” and we couldn’t agree with him more. The CEO’s work ethic, leadership, and connections should translated into profits in short order. The acquisition should wake investors up to the true potential. On a technical basis this stock could break through to new highs once the quarter is compiled and financing and corporate cleanup is completed. The dilution should no longer be a drag on the stock price.

This acquisition transforms the company and gives them the ability to easily get financing on non-dilutive terms. They also have some key assets to leverage like the $21 mil dollars they just got from a referral fee. The market reaction seems out of touch with the well crafted deal the CEO put together. They just got a huge equity infusion into the company so the market reaction doesnt make sense. This will likely rebound quickly as people understand the true substance of this deal.

Why did the stock go down on this news? Was the company worth more or less after that news. Does the company need any more funding over the course of the year other than to repay this toxic note. Is the CEO taking any money? What will they do with that money – buy the land for the cell towers develop it creating a recurring revenue stream. Are you seeing how all the pieces of the puzzle fit together now. Is the stock undervalued?
