SensoDetect Aktiebolag is bordering on breakeven, according to some Swedish Medical Equipment analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2024, before turning a profit of kr2.0m in 2025. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven roughly 2 years from today. What rate will the company have to grow year-on-year in order to breakeven on this date?

Given this is a high-level overview, we won’t go into details of SensoDetect Aktiebolag's upcoming projects, but, take into account that generally 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 8.1% 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.
