. In the report, Brean Capital noted, “SeaChange is in the penalty box after missing, and guiding down, for two quarters in a row. The company continues to maintain that the stars are aligning for a strong ramp in revenue and profits in F2016, but the combination of minimal disclosure of the company's business segments, an unwillingness to commit to F1Q15 guidance, and poor articulation of the company's growing opportunity has made it hard for investors to support the stock. However, our independent due diligence confirms the potential for a reversal of fundamental trends in 2HF15, and the potential for dramatically improved results in F2016.

As a result, we are maintaining our Buy rating and $14 price target.” SeaChange International closed on Friday at $9.58.
