Consensus from 3 of the Swedish Software analysts is that Artificial Solutions International is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2025, before generating positive profits of kr2.9m in 2026. The company is therefore projected to breakeven around 2 years from today. What rate will the company have to grow year-on-year in order to breakeven on this date?
