Full Thursday Update On Nasdaq Profile (CRKN)

The opening bell is about to pop-off, so let's jump to it quickly. Full Thursday Update On Nasdaq Profile (CRKN) [Dawson James Securities $8.50 Price Target]( September 30th Dear Reader, The opening bell is about to pop-off, so let's jump to it quickly. CRKN had an interesting day yesterday. Pushing to a high of $4.05 Tuesday, potential resistance at the $4.00 level and at the 200-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA) appeared too much to overcome. With that potential pressure, CRKN ended up pulling back some which could put it in an interesting position. By interesting position, this profile could be displaying huge upside potential from current trading levels. To put it simply, CRKN reached $4.00+ on both Tuesday and Wednesday. It also has a 52-week high of $8.00. And, last but not least, has an $8.50 target from Dawson James Securities. Now, I'm not saying that CRKN is going to go soaring to any outrageous high today, but you need to be aware of the potential upside this profile is displaying from Wednesday's close. It doesn't hurt that CRKN also dropped huge news this week.

The closest comp to Crown, with a high-growth profile, a product addressing a large market and the potential to capture meaningful share, is View, Inc.; the company’s shares have traded between 5x and 13x forward-twelve-month revenue since March of this year, when sales estimates from FactSet were first available. Using this multiple range and a $100Mn revenue bogey results in a 5- to 7-year enterprise value target of $550Mn to $1.3Bn. We discount this to arrive at an 18-month enterprise target range of $161Mn to $595Mn. Using a share count of 17.9Mn, which includes conversion of the convertible preferred, leads to a price target of $9 to $33. There are also substantial warrants and options outstanding with cashless exercise provisions. The amount of additional shares will be determined by the share price at time of exercise. Using a price exercise range of $3.70 to $9.00 (the current price to the low end of the target price above) leads to 4.2Mn to 10.5Mn additional shares. Adjusting the target range for these additional shares brings the price target range to $5.66 to $26.92 per share. This is a wide range. ----- #3 Potential CRKN Catalyst - Low Float Profile According to [Yahoo Finance]( CRKN has a low float. The website reports this profile to have approximately 12.01Mn shares in its float. Why is that important? It's important on one crucial level. Volatility. With so few shares available for trading, other potential catalysts (like big news) can send shares heading vertical in the short-term. ----- #4 Potential CRKN Catalyst - Profile Trades Above Several Lines Of Potential Support After a major move Tuesday on the heels of the big news I mentioned above, CRKN moved above several lines of potential support. Those include CRKN's: - 5-Day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) - 13-Day EMA - 50-Day Simple Moving Average (SMA) - 100-Day SMA If potential support starts building at these levels, CRKN could look to make a charge back up the charts. And with a 52-week high of $8.00 and an analyst target of $8.50, there could be nearly triple-digit potential upside from Tuesday's closing valuation. ----- #5 Potential CRKN Catalyst - DynamicTint™ Insert Could Reduce Energy Costs By 26% Crown Electrokinetics Smart Glass Insert Could Reduce Energy Costs by at Least 26% New data from preliminary field test suggests that office buildings may lower HVAC-related costs by installing smart glass inserts from Crown LOS ANGELES, Aug. 3, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (NASDAQ: CRKN) ("Crown"), a smart glass technology company, has completed a preliminary field test, and the data suggests that it can reduce energy costs of office buildings by approximately 26%. The field test was conducted from the 22nd floor of a Los Angeles office building, where Crown's patented ink technology was partially rendered onto window inserts and then placed over single pane windows. By blocking out some of the heat generated by sunlight, the simulation data indicated that an office building could reduce the operating costs for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. At scale, such a reduction in HVAC utilization can also help lower carbon emissions. Additionally, the inserts are intended to reduce glare, improve tenant comfort, and eliminate the need for window blinds. Fundamentally, single pane windows are energy-inefficient, providing little insulation from heat generated by sunlight. Commercial buildings subsequently absorb most of that heat, leading to increased operating costs associated with HVAC systems that cool the buildings. Additionally, higher HVAC usage creates excessive amounts of carbon emissions, and according to the Department of Energy, buildings account for 76% of electricity use and 40% of primary energy use in the United States. Crown's DynamicTint™ Insert aims to enhance the efficiency of existing windows, eliminating the need to replace the glass by easily fitting into window frames. It also acts as an additional pane of glass, further insulating the building from outside temperatures. And, powered by solar, DynamicTint™ Insert will ultimately be able to function without wiring into the building. "We're pleased with the results of this initial field test, but I believe that 26% in energy savings is just the baseline. We have evidence that our inserts will also save energy related to the HVAC heating as well as cooling. As we continue to iterate on our beta product, we expect the DynamicTint™ Insert to help reduce a building's energy costs and its carbon emissions. Perhaps most importantly, the insert approach to smart glass makes it easier to retrofit to existing buildings, and it will be considerably less expensive than anything currently in the market. As we transition from an R&D phase to commercialization, we're listening closely to our prospective customers and incorporating features most critical to office REITs, since saving money and combating climate change should not be mutually exclusive," said Doug Croxall, Crown's Chairman & CEO.
