Oneflow (STO:ONEF) Is In A Good Position To Deliver On Growth Plans

Just because a business does not make any money, does not mean that the stock will go down. For example, although software-as-a-service business Salesforce.com lost money for years while it grew recurring revenue, if you held shares since 2005, you'd have done very well indeed. Nonetheless, only a fool would ignore the risk that a loss making company burns through its cash too quickly.

Given this risk, we thought we'd take a look at whether Oneflow (STO:ONEF) shareholders should be worried about its cash burn. For the purposes of this article, cash burn is the annual rate at which an unprofitable company spends cash to fund its growth; its negative free cash flow. First, we'll determine its cash runway by comparing its cash burn with its cash reserves.

How Long Is Oneflow's Cash Runway?

A company's cash runway is calculated by dividing its cash hoard by its cash burn. When Oneflow last reported its March 2025 balance sheet in May 2025, it had zero debt and cash worth kr84m. Importantly, its cash burn was kr78m over the trailing twelve months. Therefore, from March 2025 it had roughly 13 months of cash runway. Notably, one analyst forecasts that Oneflow will break even (at a free cash flow level) in about 3 years. Essentially, that means the company will either reduce its cash burn, or else require more cash. You can see how its cash balance has changed over time in the image below.

How Well Is Oneflow Growing?

We reckon the fact that Oneflow managed to shrink its cash burn by 25% over the last year is rather encouraging. And considering that its operating revenue gained 26% during that period, that's great to see. It seems to be growing nicely. Clearly, however, the crucial factor is whether the company will grow its business going forward. For that reason, it makes a lot of sense to take a look at our analyst forecasts for the company.

How Hard Would It Be For Oneflow To Raise More Cash For Growth?

Even though it seems like Oneflow is developing its business nicely, we still like to consider how easily it could raise more money to accelerate growth. Generally speaking, a listed business can raise new cash through issuing shares or taking on debt. Many companies end up issuing new shares to fund future growth. By looking at a company's cash burn relative to its market capitalisation, we gain insight on how much shareholders would be diluted if the company needed to raise enough cash to cover another year's cash burn.

Since it has a market capitalisation of kr768m, Oneflow's kr78m in cash burn equates to about 10% of its market value. As a result, we'd venture that the company could raise more cash for growth without much trouble, albeit at the cost of some dilution.

One the one hand we have its solid cash burn relative to its market cap, while on the other it can also boast very strong revenue growth.
