NeoVolta Inc. designs, manufactures, and sells energy storage systems in the United States.

AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early.

NeoVolta is bordering on breakeven, according to some American Electrical analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2026, before turning a profit of US$400k in 2027. 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? Using a line of best fit, we calculated an average annual growth rate of 98%, 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 NeoVolta's growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, though, 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 issue worth mentioning. NeoVolta currently has a relatively high level of debt. Generally, the rule of thumb is debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in NeoVolta's case is 47%. A higher level of debt requires more stringent capital management which increases the risk in investing in the loss-making company.
