SKYX Platforms is bordering on breakeven, according to the 2 American Electrical analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2022, before turning a profit of US$16m in 2023. So, the company is predicted to breakeven just over a year 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 115%, which is rather optimistic! If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.

We're not going to go through company-specific developments for SKYX Platforms given that this is a high-level summary, though, bear in mind that typically 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. SKYX Platforms currently has a relatively high level of debt. Typically, debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in SKYX Platforms' case is 46%. Note that a higher debt obligation increases the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
