Infracommerce CXaaS S.A. (BVMF:IFCM3) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. Infracommerce CXaaS S.A. provides digital solutions for various brands and industries in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Latin America. With the latest financial year loss of R$295m and a trailing-twelve-month loss of R$305m, the R$357m market-cap company amplified its loss by moving further away from its breakeven target. The most pressing concern for investors is Infracommerce CXaaS' path to profitability – when will it breakeven? In this article, we will touch on the expectations for the company's growth and when analysts expect it to become profitable.

According to the 4 industry analysts covering Infracommerce CXaaS, the consensus is that breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2024, before generating positive profits of R$32m in 2025. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year from today. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2025? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 106% year-on-year, on average, which is rather optimistic! If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.

Given this is a high-level overview, we won’t go into details of Infracommerce CXaaS' upcoming projects, however, take into account that by and large a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.

One thing we would like to bring into light with Infracommerce CXaaS is its relatively high level of debt. Generally, the rule of thumb is debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in Infracommerce CXaaS' case is 44%. A higher level of debt requires more stringent capital management which increases the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
