Needham analyst Austin Bohliq initiates coverage on Red Cat Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: RCAT) with a Buy rating and a price target of $17.00.

The analyst comments "We are initiating coverage of Red Cat, with a Buy rating and $17 PT. We believe the unmanned aerial systems (UAS) industry is entering a multi-year supercycle, and view Red Cat uniquely positioned to capture accelerating demand for defense-grade small ISR drones. We think the company’s most significant near-term opportunity is the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance Tranche 2 (SRR2) program of record, which we believe is positioned to significantly ramp into a $200M+ opportunity over the next 2 years. Coupled with their broader UAS portfolio and expansion into unmanned surface vehicles, RCAT is positioned at the center of a $15B U.S. defense spending cycle on next-gen unmanned solutions. We see multi-year tailwinds from SRR2, accelerating domestic and international defense spend and new domain expansion driving significant growth."
