Litchfield Hills

Litchfield Hills Research LLC

Litchfield Hills Research is a Connecticut-based issuer-sponsored equity research firm covering micro- and small-cap companies, which pay it for report distribution and investor targeting rather than investors paying for access.

Company history

Theodore R. O'Neill, a sell-side analyst with more than 25 years at firms including Needham & Company, Wells Fargo, A.G. Edwards and H.C. Wainwright, founded Litchfield Hills Research in 2012 in Lakeville, Connecticut. The firm is not a registered broker-dealer; reports from 2018 to 2024 identified O'Neill as a registered representative of broker-dealer Ascendiant Capital Markets. Its analyst team includes Barry M. Sine and Joseph D. France.

Research

The firm writes company-sponsored research on micro- and small-cap issuers, many traded on Nasdaq or OTC markets, and states that its reports conform to FINRA research standards. Issuers pay for distribution and investor targeting; the firm discloses no investment-banking compensation and no analyst shareholdings in covered companies. Ratings are Buy (total return of 15% or more in 12 months), Hold (−15% to +15%) and Sell (worse than −15%).
