AirSculpt Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:AIRS) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. AirSculpt Technologies, Inc., together with its subsidiaries, focuses on operating as a holding company for EBS Intermediate Parent LLC that provides body contouring procedure services in the United States. The US$241m market-cap company’s loss lessened since it announced a US$4.5m loss in the full financial year, compared to the latest trailing-twelve-month loss of US$3.4m, as it approaches breakeven. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which AirSculpt Technologies will turn a profit, with the big question being “when will the company breakeven?” We've put together a brief outline of industry analyst expectations for the company, its year of breakeven and its implied growth rate.

According to the 3 industry analysts covering AirSculpt Technologies, the consensus is that breakeven is near. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2024, before turning a profit of US$861k in 2025. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year 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 121% is expected, 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.

Given this is a high-level overview, we won’t go into details of AirSculpt Technologies' upcoming projects, though, bear in mind 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. AirSculpt Technologies currently has a relatively high level of debt. Generally, the rule of thumb is debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in AirSculpt Technologies' case is 83%. Note that a higher debt obligation increases the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
