Anthony Vendetti has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Nephros’s solid performance in its core business, successful growth initiatives, and sound financial management.

The increase in Active Customer Sites and the expansion within existing accounts demonstrate the company’s capability to grow organically. The launch of an online filter tracker is expected to contribute positively to filter replacement sales by providing valuable insights to clients and improving utilization rates.
Furthermore, Nephros’s strategic moves, such as enhancing its presence at industry conferences and investing in its sales force, are anticipated to increase brand awareness and generate more leads, which can lead to further growth in Active Customer Sites and programmatic sales. Vendetti also notes the potential for long-term growth opportunities in new product applications and market channels, despite the current absence of regulatory guidelines in these areas.
