In this article:

AXON provides equipment, training, and related services to law enforcement agencies. Some of its more popular offerings include TASER devices, body cameras, and virtual reality training. The company’s number of users and average revenue per user have increased primarily on the back of larger adoption of its software, and acquisitions are pushing it to new lines of business, like drones.

In the second quarter, revenues from TASER and the firm’s software/sensors segments increased 27.6% and 46.8%, respectively, on a year-over-year basis. AXON also provided bullish guidance for fiscal 2024, with revenues expected to be up to $2.1 billion, representing growth of approximately 29.5% on a year-over-year basis.

It’s no wonder AXON shares are up 45% this year – and they could rise more. MAPsignals data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
