JUPW: Recent Tight-Float IPO On Verge Of A Major Run

Jupiter Wellness (JUPW)
Current Price: $4.84
Gain Since Inception: 15%
Target Price: $7.50
Upside Potential: 55%
Market Cap: $38 million
Shares Outstanding: 7.8 million
Float: 1.5 million

Yesterday we put out a bullish trade alert on Jupiter Wellness (JUPW). The stock proceeded to move up 15% on 120,000 volume, one of its higher volume days. JUPW was a recent IPO that has been extremely thinly traded so far. Considering its tight float and thin trading, any kind of volume spike could lead it to have a massive run, with Tuesday's move being just a small taste of what can happen. We are up to 941 followers despite not giving out a lot of alerts, a fact that we think is indicative of a successful, diligent and prudent stock picking history.

JUPW closed its IPO financing just a couple of weeks ago, raising $7 million at $7.50. That makes anything in the $4's a steal as the institutional investors behind the deal will likely want to see it push above the $7.50 raise. Since there is only 1.5 million shares in the float, this would be relatively easy to do. 

JUPW is a CBD wellness company. Given that the Democrats now have control over the White House pending finalized election results, the cannabis sector could become bullish on expectations of favorable legislation. JUPW has some decent numbers for a startup. It's one thing for a company to have a small float, but an endless need for cash would cause painful dilution. JUPW is not in that situation:

 


JUPW achieved $178,000 in revenue with a net loss of $607,000 in Q3. That's impressive revenue growth of 3,400% from startup status in 2019. As the net loss was $607,000, that $7 million the company just raised is going to last it for a while. Especially on this revenue growth path where gross margin will offset more and more of the operating costs. The company could possibly attain positive operating cash flows before it burns through the $7 million IPO and might not need to raise again. The market was impressed with these financial results given that the stock moved up after hours on Monday immediately after their release. This could be a catalyst for a major run on Tuesday and the rest of the week.
