Check out our latest analysis for Nitro Games Oyj
Nitro Games Oyj is bordering on breakeven, according to some Swedish Entertainment analysts. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2024, before generating positive profits of €400k in 2025. The company is therefore projected to breakeven around 2 years from now. 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 102% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
Underlying developments driving Nitro Games Oyj's growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, however, take into account that by and large a high forecast growth rate is not unusual for a company that is currently undergoing an investment period.
Before we wrap up, there’s one issue worth mentioning. Nitro Games Oyj currently has a debt-to-equity ratio of 194%. Generally, the rule of thumb is debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in this case, the company has significantly overshot. A higher level of debt requires more stringent capital management which increases the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
