Azerion Group N.V. (AMS:AZRN) 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 Azerion Group N.V.'s (AMS:AZRN) future prospects. Azerion Group N.V. operates a digital entertainment and media platform worldwide. With the latest financial year loss of €134m and a trailing-twelve-month loss of €12m, the €259m market-cap company alleviated its loss by moving closer towards its target of breakeven. As path to profitability is the topic on Azerion Group's investors mind, we've decided to gauge market sentiment. Below we will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for the company.
Check out our latest analysis for Azerion Group
Consensus from 3 of the Dutch Interactive Media and Services analysts is that Azerion Group is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2023, before generating positive profits of €5.2m in 2024. 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 103% is expected, which signals high confidence from analysts. If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.
Underlying developments driving Azerion Group's growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, though, keep in mind that typically a high forecast growth rate is not unusual for a company that is currently undergoing an investment period.
One thing we would like to bring into light with Azerion Group is its debt-to-equity ratio of over 2x. Typically, debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in this case, the company has significantly overshot. Note that a higher debt obligation increases the risk in investing in the loss-making company.
