Should You Buy Lantronix Inc (LTRX) Today? Analysis, Price Targets, and 2026 Outlook.
Analysis Updated At
2026/01/30
Buy now. LTRX is holding a constructive uptrend structure (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200) and is trading just below the pivot (7.003) after a sharp pullback, which creates an attractive, impatient-entry setup. Options positioning is extremely call-skewed (very low put/call ratios), and recent news flow (drone/AI edge partnership) is a clear sentiment tailwind. While the latest 2026/Q1 fundamentals show YoY revenue decline and continued losses, the gross margin improvement plus the event-driven drone narrative and bullish Street posture make this a good buy right now for a near-term move back toward 7.84–8.36.
Technical Analysis
Trend/structure: Bullish moving average stack (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200) suggests the intermediate trend remains up despite the latest dip. Momentum: MACD histogram is positive (0.0169) but contracting, implying upside momentum is still present but cooling. RSI(6) at 55.2 is neutral—no overbought/oversold constraint. Levels: Current ~6.94 is slightly below Pivot 7.003 (near-term decision zone). Support sits at S1 6.166 (then S2 5.649). Resistance is R1 7.839 then R2 8.356. Practical read: the -5% regular-session drop followed by a positive post-market bounce looks like a pullback within an uptrend; reclaiming ~7.00 improves odds of a push to ~7.84.
Analyst Ratings and Price Target Trends
Recent trend: Positive. Lake Street reiterated Buy and increased its price target twice (Nov: $5→$6; Dec: $6→$8). Wall Street pro view—Pros: analysts frame LTRX as an under-the-radar drone/edge computing play with momentum across drones, wireless operator monitoring, and out-of-band management. Cons: the core financials show YoY revenue contraction and ongoing losses, so execution and follow-through in upcoming quarters are required to justify the higher targets.
