$DPLS Revolutionizing The Fiber Optics Industry
With the rise of smart cities and technology progressing at break-neck speeds, fiber-optic technology is increasingly in demand. Thankfully, DarkPulse, Inc. (OTC: DPLS) – a global leader in critical infrastructure solutions – has been revolutionizing this sector using its own patented fiber-sensor technology to make infrastructure safer and more reliable. To capitalize on this rapidly growing market, DPLS has been expanding across the world – especially in the Middle East – where it is emerging as a leader in the region. With Optilan’s spin-off approaching and coming meetings with Tesla, DPLS stock is one to watch closely this year as these catalysts roll out.
DPLS Fundamentals
DPLS is a leading technology-security company thanks to its patented BOTDA dark-pulse sensor technology. This technology provides a data stream of metrics for assessing changing temperatures, strains, and stresses. Standing out from its competition, DPLS offers the most dependable high resolution technology at low production costs. When it is applied to various types of infrastructure in oil and gas, security, pipeline, mining, and even aerospace sectors, DPLS’s technology can become an important tool for evaluating the structural safety of these incredibly expensive projects.
Earlier this year, DPLS finalized two Letters of Intent to acquire leading drone companies – Remote Intelligence and Wildlife Specialists. It also announced its acquisition of the drone company TerraData Unmanned which led to a further increase in stock value after an initial 500% increase in the days following its June 8th announcement.
Optilan
Additionally, DarkPulse acquired Optilan – a leader in security and communications – for an aggregate purchase price of £4,000,000. Optilan will give DPLS access to new and emerging markets because of its operational presence in the Middle East, Turkey, India, and Azerbaijan. These acquisitions are promising according to the company’s COO because they will allow the company to “expand its system capabilities and open new service lines”.
Based on its acquisition of Optilan it appears DPLS is venturing further into the global market. The company’s CEO Dennis O’Leary, shared in a previous interview that as a result of market positions, the company’s Director for APAC and MENA regions will be transitioning to Dubai where he expects to have a market presence very soon. Considering Dubai’s ultra-modern smart cities, the move is not surprising and may point to more.
In an effort to maintain transparency with shareholders, O’Leary was recently on an interview on twitter spaces to discuss the company’s achievements and future plans. Investors are bullish on this interview and the company’s effort to generate shareholder value. Back in January, DPLS announced ambitious plans for its subsidiary – Optilan – to pursue a NYSE listing via an IPO by mid-2022. If successful, this move is expected to increase Optilan’s value – as it will position the company for expansions into different markets.
Even though the company hasn’t disclosed much information regarding its uplisting plans, DPLS plans to list 20% of Optilan’s shares in the market. O’Leary believes the IPO “would provide a great opportunity for Optilan to grow in the infratech market”. He added that “the IPO will bring value to DPLS shareholders as the company itself moves towards an uplisting on a senior exchange”. With this in mind, investors are awaiting further details from the company and are bullish on the prospect of an uplisting.
Upon uplisting, Optilan will remain a subsidiary of DPLS and both companies will operate as strategic partners and will continue collaborating on projects – inevitably capitalizing on the rapid growth of the infrastructure technology sector. In fact, O’Leary believes “that an IPO would provide the greatest opportunity for Optilan to grow the infratech category and explore its own acquisition strategy”.
Delivering on its plans for Optilan, DPLS’ BOD approved to issue a special dividend of Optilan shares to its shareholders on August 31st. While the company has not determined the dividend ratio for the distribution, DPLS will share more news regarding the ratio on July 15th. With this in mind, DPLS will take the first steps to list Optilan on the NASDAQ or the NYSE as it expects to engage investment bankers by next August so Optilan could be listed before EOY. As the spin-off of Optilan is approaching, DPLS stock could be a smart investment at its current dip in anticipation of the spin-off.
With this in mind, Optilan has the potential to be a profitable investment upon its spin-off. Recently, the subsidiary was able to secure three contracts in the span of one week. The first contract is in Libya for the design and installation of some of its products. As for the second contract, Optilan secured a 12 month framework agreement regarding the installation, maintenance and emergency response for a UK fiber optic network provider. Meanwhile, the third contract is related to a new fiber installation in Wales. Given the subsidiary’s ability to secure such deals in a short amount of time, DPLS could be an enticing opportunity to receive shares of Optilan.
Government Contracts
Piling onto its lists of projects, DPLS started a pilot project with the California Department of Transportation (CALTRANS) to monitor California’s bridges and roadbeds structural health. The company is also working on launching a system that will monitor changes in concrete temperature in real time to ensure infrastructure structural safety. DPLS is exploring other potential locations to implement its technologies in, with the aim of expanding to the global market.
Based on the applications of the company’s technology, DPLS secured the major sponsorship position for the Smart Cities Connect conference which will be held next September. This conference is expected to be attended by 500 city government representatives in addition to more than 1000 attendees. During this conference, O’Leary will be a keynote speaker and will speak about the launch of the Honcut Bridge in California. Developed by DPLS, this bridge is set to become the world’s first intelligent piece of infrastructure upon its launch. In light of this, many investors are bullish DPLS stock could surge when this bridge is launched.
Stock Repurchase Program
The board of directors recently authorized a stocks repurchase program where the company can repurchase up to $15 million of the company’s outstanding shares over the next year to return value to its shareholders. This will be executed through open market purchases or private transactions and will be funded from DPLS’s cash on hand. However DPLS emphasized that it is under no obligation to acquire the whole number of shares and that the time frame might be adjusted or extended later on.
Investor Relations
Recently, DPLS announced that the leading investor relation company – RedChip Companies – will be taking over the company’s investor relations efforts. On that note the company’s CEO – Dennis O’Leary – said “We look forward to a beneficial relationship that broadens our shareholder base and effectively communicates our story to the investment community.” The company also plans to introduce DPLS to institutional investment and private equity firms through investment roadshows and earnings calls starting this quarter.
Eliminating Toxic Funding
To protect shareholders’ interests, DPLS has defeated a Motion for Dispositive Relief – which was brought by a toxic securities lender seeking to dismiss the company’s claims of dealer registration violations. As a result, the company was awarded attorney fees – which are yet to be determined. Either way, investors remain bullish on the company’s effort to restore and generate value.
To further ensure shareholder value, the company recently filed a complaint against convertible note funder – EMA Financial LLC – to unwind unlawful stock transactions. O’Leary highlighted that “this complaint is the third case the company has filed against an alleged securities act violation”. O’Leary added that “shareholders have to know that the company continues to assess the stock’s performance, monitor social media, and will legally pursue all parties that may have damaged the company or its shareholders.” The company’s efforts are evident given that DPLS intends to take all court awards and issue them as a special dividend for shareholders.
New HQ
To position itself for growth in the years ahead, the company recently executed a lease to move its National Headquarters to Houston, Texas. This strategic decision will position the company among other major industry players given that Houston is home to over 113 national oil and gas exploration, production, and renewable green energy firms. With this lease, the company is set to occupy 4,224 sq. ft. – in addition to its already existing 20 thousand sq. ft. electronics manufacturing and R&D facility in Tempe, Arizona. Both facilities will enable the company’s expansion across the country.
To ensure efficiency of operations, DPLS plans on relocating some of its UK corporate members including the Special Teams unit to Houston as a way of accelerating the company’s progress.
Everglades Partnership
Briefly after its Texas relocation announcement, DPLS announced a partnership with The Everglades Foundation – which is known for protecting and restoring America’s Everglades through science, advocacy, and education and envisions.
O’Leary highlights the pivotal role of The Everglades Foundation and “is proud to join the fight to restore these irreplaceable wetlands.” However, DPLS is not the only organization bullish on this partnership. The Foundation’s CEO – Eric Eikenberg – believes that “organizations like DPLS who share our belief in a sustainable Everglades are critical to our success, and we are grateful for their shared passion and support for the future of this vital ecosystem.”
As the company continues to expand and deliver on its mission, DPLS seems poised for growth in the months ahead. As of now, investors are waiting on updates regarding the company’s potentially lucrative California projects. If successful, shareholders could see major ROI – making DPLS stock a possibly profitable long-term investment.
Middle East Expansion
Given the company’s efforts to expand globally especially in the Middle East, DPLS partnered with Progress Humanity to assist in further expanding the company’s business. As it develops solutions for conducting business globally, Progress Humanity will provide DPLS with better understanding of cross-border political dynamics, regional and global relationships, government policies and programs, as well as local regulations. As a result, DPLS will have better insights when entering new global markets through this partnership.
Following this partnership, DPLS entered into a JV with Egyptian Electrical & Mechanical Works Co (EEMW). According to this agreement, both companies will create a jointly owned Egyptian company with the exclusive rights for DPLS’ BOTDA systems to be used in projects throughout Egypt. Meanwhile, this JV will allow DPLS to capitalize on EEMW’s experience in infrastructure project management, engineering and installation capabilities for projects in the MENA region. With this in mind, this partnership is expected to be pivotal in DPLS’ vision of expanding in this region since Egypt is considered to be the leading technology focused country in the region. Considering this partnership’s potential to further expand DPLS’ presence globally, DPLS stock could be a bargain at its current low PPS.
Through this partnership, both companies will focus on delivering solutions in real estate development, infrastructure, utility management, in addition to new technologies based on distributed sensing fiber systems. At the same time, DPLS and EEMW plan to build a R&D unit to get insights about future demands and market trends in the MENA region. Given that the MENA region is the global leader in building smart cities, DPLS’ entry into the Egyptian market could prove to be profitable as the country is planning to build 17 smart cities rivaling cities in Dubai and the NEOM project. Based on this, many investors are confident DPLS stock could be profitable in the long-term as the company is well-positioned for growth through its plans.
In light of this partnership, DPLS appointed EEMW ’s CEO Dr.Eng. Ehab Eldemeri as a director for Africa and GCC countries. Eldemeri is widely regarded as a successful entrepreneur and an expert in AI project management, optical systems, and business development for more than 23 years. In addition, Eldemeri has worked with several large enterprises in lucrative industries throughout the world. Considering Eldemeri’s successful career, DPLS could be well-positioned for further expansions globally by utilizing Eldemeri’s experience and networks. Meanwhile, having a local expert on board will allow DPLS to secure a significant market share in the MENA region.
Looking to increase its offering in the MENA region, DPLS partnered with MultiNet Communications to distribute its BOTDA EREBOSÔ sensing systems across the region. While offering the company’s products, MultiNet will mainly target customers in the critical infrastructure, smart cities, transportation, and renewable energy sectors. Moreover, MultiNet will focus on oil and gas pipeline applications which could be a profitable revenue stream for DPLS since the Middle East produces around a quarter of the world’s oil production.
To facilitate the distribution of the company’s products, DPLS will provide technical support and product training while MultiNet will assist customers in identifying and deploying the company’s solutions. Moreover, MultiNet will help the company in creating a certification program for companies willing to become certified installation partners for DPLS’ products. Through this program, DPLS is expected to accelerate the adoption of its disruptive products and services globally. In light of this, DPLS stock has the potential for major growth in the future when its products are widely used across the world.
Tesla Meeting
Meanwhile, DPLS stock is gaining investors’ attention after the company shared that it had a productive meeting with Tesla and has follow up meetings with internal teams of both companies. Considering that DPLS is developing a technology allowing EVs to self charge while driving, Tesla could be looking to acquire this advanced technology or partner with DPLS to gain access to the technology. With investors anticipating more news about these meetings, DPLS stock could be one to watch over the coming weeks.
DPLS Financials
According to its latest Q1 report, DPLS increased its assets to $39.8 million compared to $35.4 million reported in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, the company’s liabilities increased from $23.8 million in Q4 to $26.1 million. In terms of revenues, DPLS reported $2 million. However, the company had $4.7 million in operating costs – leading to a $5.3 million net loss.
Technical Analysis
Currently trading at $.0216, DPLS stock has a support at .0201 and shows resistances near .0245, .028, and .0353. With DPLS meeting with Tesla and planning follow up meetings with the EV giant in the future, DPLS has the potential to climb with more updates on the coming meetings. Given that DPLS stock recently broke through its VWAP, bullish investors could take a starter position at this price level as the stock could run near $.0245 with high volume. However, DPLS could retest its $.0201 support if its break through the VWAP fails – which could be a good price for cheap shares. With this in mind, DPLS stock’s chart appears to be bottomed out which could be an opportunity for long-term investors to accumulate shares.
Accumulation is currently steady after a recent uptick earlier this month and the MACD recently turned bullish following the news of DPLS’ meeting with Tesla. The RSI picked up slightly from 40 to 48 which indicates that DPLS stock has room to run on any update. With this in mind, DPLS stock would require high trading volume to run given its share structure of 5.5 billion OS and around 5.4 billion float.
DPLS Stock Forecast
With the company continuing to expand its business in the Middle East, DPLS is well positioned to capitalize on the smart cities being built in the region. On that note, DPLS’ JV in Egypt could allow it to take a part in developing the country’s 17 smart cities. Meanwhile, DPLS is capitalizing on the oil production in the Middle East as the company is partnering with MultiNet to distribute its products in the region – with a focus on the major oil and gas industries.
Domestically, DPLS has the potential to secure government contracts as it is preparing to launch the Honcut Bridge in California which is the world’s first intelligent piece of infrastructure. With this in mind, DPLS is set to become a keynote speaker in the Smart Cities Connect conference after securing the major sponsorship position. Since this conference will be attended by 500 local government representatives, this could be an opportunity for DPLS to secure contracts with local governments.
In the short-term, investors are watching DPLS closely for the expected spin-off of Optilan. As the company is planning to issue a special dividend for its shareholders on August 31st, investors could be more inclined to hold DPLS stock to secure free shares of Optilan. With this in mind, DPLS intends to engage several investment bankers by August to list Optilan on the NASDAQ or the NYSE by EOY. If these efforts come to fruition, DPLS stock could be well-positioned to skyrocket and reach new highs.
Currently, DPLS is witnessing increased interest after sharing that it had a meeting with Tesla. With upcoming meetings with the internal teams of both companies, these meetings could result in a deal with Tesla as the EV giant could be looking to get access to DPLS’ technology allowing EVs to self charge while driving. Given that the company is meeting with a company as large as Tesla, DPLS stock is one to watch in the coming weeks for more updates.
