Emerging Growth reiterates Buy and $3 PT on NWTG after Q1:26; capacity expanded but Q1 missed
AI Summary
Emerging Growth Research reiterated a Buy‐Emerging rating and $3.00 price target on NWTG after Newton Golf's Q1:26, noting results were modestly below expectations due to temporary production upgrades that caused shipping delays and about $0.3M of order cancellations. The firm emphasized stronger demand (rising customer deposits and open orders), a manufacturing expansion to ~60,000 shafts/year, top-selling Motion shaft placement and growing pro usage, but modestly trimmed FY:26 revenue to ~$10.9M while expecting revenue acceleration in FY:27 as efficiencies and OEM discussions progress.
