Tiny Technology Research Corp. of Clearwater is turning heads on Wall Street.
The company's stock has been on a tear this year. Starting at a lowly $1.85 in January, it hit $4 in June, $6 in July, $8 in September - and then spiked up to $14 a share Thursday.
Company officials called this week's 47 percent price surge a delayed reaction to last week's earnings report. The company sells extension cords, surge protectors and other electrical safety and control equipment to big customers such as Home Depot, Wal-Mart and the U.S. military. Last quarter it earned $793,860 on $6.2-million in revenues.
"I think we're on people's radars now," said chief financial officer Scott Loucks. "It's nice finally to be recognized after all these years of hard work."
