Q&A Interview with Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS) Discussing Sequestration and its impact on the Defense sector and Defense Stocks

Q&A Interview with Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS) Discussing Sequestration and its impact on the Defense sector and Defense Stocks


Point Roberts WA- March 11, 2013 (www.investorideas.com newswire, www.homelanddefensestocks.com ) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research including defense and Homeland Defense stocks issues a recent interview with Mr. Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS), the underlying index for the Powershares Aerospace & Defense ETF (NYSE: PPA).

Scott Sacknoff discusses his impressions on the sequestration and its impact on the defense sector and defense stocks.

Q: Investorideas.com

Mr. Sacknoff, several months ago you mentioned that until the sequestration was resolved you planned to be pretty quiet, why is that?



A: Sacknoff: That’s true. Last year I said that until all the sequestration and budget issues were resolved, how defense stocks would response was just a guess. Calling a bottom without knowing where cuts were going to come from, which programs would be impacted, and as importantly, when they’d be impacted makes evaluating companies and stocks more difficult that normal. That said, there were a number of strengths in the sector – international exports, growth in commercial aerospace, cybersecurity, and great balance sheets with tremendous cash positions and I thought these factors would offset the flattening and declines in the defense budget. But sequestration was a wild card. Recognizing the stabilizing factors means little when the government throws a monkey wrench into your calculations. So instead of guessing, putting out an opinion didn’t seem right.

Q: Investorideas.com

So, sequestration took effect. Were you surprised that Congress didn’t fix the issue?

A: Sacknoff: Not really. I thought it was a horrible idea and its execution will cause lots of problems whose impact won’t be felt for months, but nothing Congress does (or doesn’t do) really surprises me anymore. Democrats thought he Republicans would budget and they called that bluff and decided enacting budget cuts were more important than supporting the defense sector.

Q: Investorideas.com

And what did happen in the market?

A: Sacknoff: Well, despite constant media attention on the fiscal cliff and sequestration the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: DXS) managed to outperform the broader market, gaining 16.3% in 2012. And it’s up 5% more to start 2013, 52-week highs. So those that said, they will ride it out and collect the dividends, which for the Powershares Aerospace & Defense ETF was a bit above 2.0% according to Yahoo, they were happy they chose that path. Still, the market reaction instead of ignoring sequestration could have focused on the impact and drop in GDP and stocks could have easily have fallen. There was something else I did find unusual.

Q: Investorideas.com

What was that?

 Sacknoff: Well, I believe that in an unknown environment, owning a fund for diversifications reasons instead of holding an individual stock makes sense; especially if you are unsure which companies would be impacted the most. Yet over the past several months, the opposite appears to have happened. As the stocks, and of course the funds, moved higher, so people were obviously buying the sector, the number of shares held in the various funds declined. It’s a shame because when you compare the performance of companies such as Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) and Boeing (NYSE: BA) with the Powershares Aerospace & Defense ETF (NYSE: PPA) for example, and investors would have benefited from being invested in the fund.



Q: Investorideas.com

So, where do you think things are headed from here?

A: Sacknoff: There is still a fair amount of unknowns however some things to keep in mind. A Continuing Resolution to fund the government at 2012 levels through September is currently being debated. This would provide DoD with $518 billion in nonwar funding plus an additional $87 billion for overseas war-on-terror activities.

Now, many people outside Washington would think is a good thing, yet the problem with a CR is that not only do the budget numbers remain fixed but what their spent on is fixed as well. Picture if you budgeted $20,000 for a new car in 2012 and being told ‘here’s another $20,000 to spend for a car in 2013’ even though you didn’t need one and would rather spend the money on fixing your heating system. It does appear though that Congress will give the Pentagon some flexibility to allocate funds with some limited flexibility. Investors should keep in mind though that anticipated defense spending reductions over the next several years will take us, roughly, to the levels seen in 2007, levels much higher than after 9/11, near the beginning of the last defense spending build-up.

Also, sequestration reductions won’t mean the canceling of previously awarded contracts and the agency is going to find as many non-essential areas to cut as possible. The first cuts announced will be closing the military’s worldwide commissary network one extra day each week and issuing partial furloughs to 15,000 military school teachers and staff. So, for at least the moment, the impact on public defense stocks is delayed.

Q. Investorideas.com

Lastly, what do you think the play is for 2013?

A: Sacknoff: Personally, I’d expect aerospace suppliers to produce solid gains and for Boeing to rebound from 2012’s market underperformance once the issues with the 787 batteries are resolved. And I see C4ISR and cybersecurity firms gaining traction in spite of the budget issues at DoD as IT companies such as SAIC, CACI, KEYW, etc gain customers from other government agencies and increasingly from private firms wanting DoD-level security to protect their networks. With cyber attacks up 44% and 75 million pieces of malware on the net, even the banking community has turned to the National Security Agency for advice.

This has been great. Thank you for making the time to chat today.

Sacknoff: My pleasure.

Q&A Interview with Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS)

New York, New York - September 17, 2012 (Investorideas.com Newswire, www.homelanddefensestocks.com) Investorideas.com, an investor research portal specializing in sector research including defense and Homeland Defense stocks issues a recent interview with Mr. Scott Sacknoff of the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS).

Scott Sacknoff manages the SPADE Defense Index (NYSE: ^DXS), a benchmark for investing in the aerospace and defense sector. It has been licensed to Powershares whose Aerospace & Defense ETF (NYSE: PPA) tracks the performance of the Index.
Investorideas.com staff
Q. Thank you for joining us today. Where do you see the defense market at this time?
Scott Sacknoff, SPADE Defense Index
From a news perspective, most of the attention for the past several months has focused on the impact of sequestration and the fiscal cliff that could occur at year's end; and rightly so. Were it to occur, the impact would be severe, costing well more than a million defense-related jobs and new budget cuts in excess of $50 billion annually over the next decade (or, of course, until Congress changes the plan).  What it means is that investors interested in the sector have been playing it very cautiously.  Trading volumes are down significantly.  Small cap defense stocks as a whole continue to underperform as they have for the past several years although there are some signs of life.  From a historical valuation perspective, aerospace and defense stocks remain highly attractive and, thanks to the calendar roll-over, PPA, which tracks the industry benchmark SPADE Defense Index is hovering near 52-week highs.
Investorideas.com
What do you see as the likelihood of a deal that fixes sequestration issue?
Scott Sacknoff, SPADE Defense Index
I'd like to thank that beyond political posturing, most of our elected officials believe in doing what's best for our country.  Is there waste that could be cut at federal agencies, of course.  However, deliberately pushing our country into recession and double digit unemployment, well that's just insanity.  The reality is that I fear that the fix will come not only after the election but after the new Congress takes office in January and they work on a retroactive solution.  Unfortunately, from an investing perspective, by then the damage will have been done and a big drop in the market would have occurred.  If a solution is reached before the election or immediately thereafter, then there are a number of positives for the sector.
Investorideas.com
So shifting from politics, share with us some bright spots in A&D.
Scott Sacknoff , SPADE Defense Index
As anticipated, commercial aerospace is hitting on all cylinders and once the political issues surrounding the U.S. election are lifted, I'd expect revenues and profits to shift sharply higher.  Boeing has announced increased production levels for the 787 and 737 over the next two years and its new 737 Max has been very well received by the global airlines. This should lead to continued growth in aerospace manufacturing levels through the end of the decade. 
Investorideas.com
Barring sequestration, what do you see for the U.S. defense budget?
Scott Sacknoff , SPADE Defense Index
The specifics are still a bit cloudy. The trend for defense spending has been flattening after the sector grew post-9/11 for nearly a decade. Near-term some decline in total U.S. defense spending is a given as DoD seeks to restructure in a post-war environment while trying to prepare for new and anticipated threats; and all the while try to reduce total spending. An earlier budget  deal agreed to with Congress will see a savings of around $500 billion over the next decade, but the defense leadership sees this level as being manageable with most of the cuts coming from restructuring and eliminating waste.  In fact, as orders from international governments continue to rise, to the tune of more than $60 billion in 2011, I expect this growing line of business could offset some of the effects of the budget restructuring.
Investorideas.com
And the firms?
Scott Sacknoff , SPADE Defense Index
Unlike the post-Soviet collapse era, defense firms have had several years to improve their fiscal situation, shed or spin-off lower margin businesses, and acquire firms to better position themselves going forward.  With valuations low and cash-on-hand high, most companies are very healthy and could ride out this downcycle without major issues.  With margin expansion, we could even see their prices rise over time.  
Investorideas.com
Lastly, how will the presidential election impact the sector?
Scott Sacknoff , SPADE Defense Index
The truth is everything said now is just political posturing. Historically, the defense budgets rise and fall based on the current state of the world and not which party controls the White House.  Budgets rose during Vietnam (Kennedy, Johnson) and fell post-Vietnam (Carter), rose with Cold War tensions (Reagan) and fell after the Soviet collapse (Bush, Clinton), started rising when the cuts seemed to deep (Clinton) and rose post 9/11 (Bush). The budget is likely to see some cuts due to debt reduction and would rise in the event of an Iran nuclear situation or another terrorist attack. Ultimately, it won't matter who is President, it’s the world that matters.

Homeland Defense and Security Q&A Interview with PositiveID (OTCBB: PSID): How the M-BAND System Biothreat Detection is in the Running for BioWatch

New York, NY - July 23, 2012 - (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leader in research for independent investors presents an exclusive Q&A interview with Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of PositiveID Corporation (OTCBB: PSID) discussing its M-BAND System for biothreat detection.

Q: Investorideas.com
Can you briefly explain to new investors how the M-BAND System works and how it can be deployed in the BioWatch Generation 3 program?
A: Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Our Microfluidics-based Bioagent Networked Detector, called M-BAND, was developed under contract for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and is an early warning system designed to detect the intentional release of aerosolized biological agents. It runs autonomously for up to 30 days between service cycles, continuously analyzing air samples, typically in high-traffic areas, for the detection of bacteria, viruses, and toxins with results in as little as three hours. Results from individual M-BAND instruments are reported via a secure wireless network in real time to give an accurate and up to date status for instruments in the field in aggregate. M-BAND was designed with a high level of operational flexibility, and can be remotely set to detect for DNA-based pathogens alone, with or without either RNA-based organisms or toxins, or for all three types of pathogens simultaneously at remotely programmable intervals.
Q: Investorideas.com
We understand the Department of Homeland Security wants to open bidding before October for Generation 3 of the BioWatch program, now estimated at $5.7 Billion. Where is PSID in the process?
A: Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
We are currently awaiting the final RFP from the Department of Homeland Security, which is expected to be released later this year. In the meantime, we have made significant progress in our internal testing of M-BAND, which detects five organisms on the Centers for Disease Control Select Agents List, which is a requirement for BioWatch. Our system is fully functional and, we believe, one of the only technologies capable of addressing the requirements of the BioWatch procurement. We are preparing for potential additional testing of our system as well.
Q: Investorideas.com
The other company bidding for the BioWatch program is Northrop Grumman (NYSE:NOC); is this competitive against your technology or more synergistic?
A: Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
We believe the M-BAND instrument offers a number of advantages over similar products, including decreased consumable and operating costs, a small footprint, a closed operating environment and significant flexibility of operation. M-BAND has been designed and field tested (both indoors and outdoors) to operate continuously for 30 days unattended between scheduled services, which we believe to be higher than competing technologies. It also operates using industry gold-standard TaqMan® PCR (polymerase chain reaction) chemistry.
Q: Investorideas.com
Your Company was recently featured in a Bloomberg Businessweek.com article discussing BioWatch; did that lend a new level of credibility for your company being a small OTC listed stock?
A: Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
We believe articles like the one published in Bloomberg Businessweek shed light on the need for BioWatch Generation 3, and also highlight and validate our technology and our company. Many people may not have been previously aware of PositiveID or M-BAND, so it was very significant for our company and technology to be featured alongside the likes of Northrop Grumman. We have already received additional inquiries and interest from large corporations around the world including for possible partnership opportunities, as well as increased investor interest.
Q: Investorideas.com
Are you targeting any other markets forthe M-BAND System globally?
A: Mr. William J. Caragol, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Unfortunately, terrorism is not limited to the United States, so M-BAND could be deployed in any location around the globe. In fact, the system has been field tested in London.
