Black Diamond (Nasdaq: BDE) recently hosted a conference call to provide details on its two recently announced transactions, the acquisition of PIEPS (maker of avalanche beacons and safety equipment/tracking devices) and the purchase of its Gregory Japan distributor.

“We view these announcements as further examples of BDE taking the necessary steps toward becoming a larger company. In fact, assuming PIEPS and POC (acquisition announced in July) sales goals are met, BDE will be halfway to reaching its goal of adding $250M in annual sales by 2015 via acquisitions,” said analyst Camilo Lyon, of Canaccord Genuity, who has a positive view on the stock.

“With high visibility into the multiple growth drivers, we reiterate our BUY rating and set a new $13.50 target (from $13)” said Lyon.
