Analysts with the firm see more downside volatility, but keep an Outperform rating on the company on the strength of its sound technology. Shares of MITK -2.5% premarket.

  • It seems to me that the lawsuit throws the "sound technology" into question given that Mitek's patents seem to be getting challenged. Aren't those 3 latest patents key to how well they will perform? Could be more than a little downside to this one.

  • Nop does not, as MITK and USAA were on different APP Tech , not the same as it's used by MITK with all other institutions, i see MITK to move maybe not til mid May .

  • Wait until after its earning release. Mobile banking is a new application and it is still in early stage. Many unknowns but may be worth a bet.

    First buy at 1.95 and sold at 3.85 one day before its crash. May buy it back after earning release (most likely another disappointment).
