Yü Group PLC (LON:YU.) Is Expected To Breakeven In The Near Future
With the business potentially at an important milestone, we thought we'd take a closer look at Yü Group PLC's (LON:YU.) future prospects. Yü Group PLC, through its subsidiaries, supplies energy and utility solutions to small and medium-sized enterprises, and corporate customers in the United Kingdom. The UK£48m market-cap company announced a latest loss of UK£1.2m on 31 December 2020 for its most recent financial year result. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Yü Group 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 Yü Group
According to some industry analysts covering Yü Group, breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2021, before generating positive profits of UK£694k in 2022. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year from today. In order to meet this breakeven date, we calculated the rate at which the company must grow year-on-year. It turns out an average annual growth rate of 99% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.
We're not going to go through company-specific developments for Yü Group 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.
One thing we’d like to point out is that The company has managed its capital prudently, with debt making up 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.
