AngioDynamics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ANGO) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. AngioDynamics, Inc., a medical technology company, engages in the design, manufacture, and sale of medical, surgical, and diagnostic devices for the use in treating peripheral vascular disease, and oncology and surgical settings in the United States and internationally. With the latest financial year loss of US$184m and a trailing-twelve-month loss of US$243m, the US$311m market-cap company amplified its loss by moving further away from its breakeven target. The most pressing concern for investors is AngioDynamics' path to profitability – when will it breakeven? Below we will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for the company.

AngioDynamics is bordering on breakeven, according to the 3 American Medical Equipment analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2026, before turning a profit of US$1.2m in 2027. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven roughly 3 years from today. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2027? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 102% year-on-year, on average, 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 AngioDynamics' upcoming projects, but, 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.

One thing we’d like to point out is that AngioDynamics has no debt on its balance sheet, which is quite unusual for a cash-burning growth company, which usually has a high level of debt relative to its equity. The company currently operates purely off its shareholder funding and has no debt obligation, reducing concerns around repayments and making it a less risky investment.
