With OCC, using historical backlog, conversion multiples, the backlog implies that they can report $.25 EPS. The wildcard here is two things. 1. Have operating expenses stabilized? 2. Will backlog remain strong so that the company can at least hold that new level of EPS if they achieve it? To be clear, a bullish EPS outlier scenario could occur because I used the historical low-end backlog to revenue multiplier. I haven’t modeled $RFIL. I’m just using their shareholder letter as a barometer, where they talk about stronger markets and more visibility. It’s worth noting that both companies are moving into their seasonally stronger quarters. They’re also both benefiting from a recovery in their legacy telecom markets. Furthermore, I don’t think either of them have seen much contribution from their data center business. So, hopefully, you have this perfect storm situation where their legacy markets, along with new markets are hitting it in stride at the same time Personally, I think RFIL is the better company, long-term, but that OCC can have the biggest wow factor for the quarter. RFIL has done a better job at addressing its entire business plan to reduce cyclicality, even within its legacy markets. I’m not convinced OCC has done that.
