We feel now is a pretty good time to analyse CyanConnode Holdings plc's (LON:CYAN) business as it appears the company may be on the cusp of a considerable accomplishment. CyanConnode Holdings plc engages in the design, development, and sale of narrowband radio frequency (RF) mesh and cellular networks that enable Omni Internet of Things (IoT) communications in the United Kingdom, India, Thailand, rest of Europe, the United Arab Emirates, and internationally. With the latest financial year loss of UK£2.4m and a trailing-twelve-month loss of UK£2.2m, the UK£25m market-cap company alleviated its loss by moving closer towards its target of breakeven. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which CyanConnode Holdings will turn a profit, with the big question being “when will the company breakeven?” Below we will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for the company.

Check out our latest analysis for CyanConnode Holdings

CyanConnode Holdings is bordering on breakeven, according to the 2 British Semiconductor analysts. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2024, before generating positive profits of UK£2.9m in 2025. So, the company is predicted to breakeven just over a year from today. What rate will the company have to grow year-on-year in order to breakeven on this date? Using a line of best fit, we calculated an average annual growth rate of 80%, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.

We're not going to go through company-specific developments for CyanConnode Holdings given that this is a high-level summary, though, bear in mind that typically a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.

Before we wrap up, there’s one aspect worth mentioning. The company has managed its capital judiciously, with debt making up 11% of equity. This means that it has predominantly funded its operations from equity capital, and its low debt obligation reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
