Consensus from 10 of the American Software analysts is that Alkami Technology is on the verge of breakeven. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2026, before turning a profit of US$68m in 2027. The company is therefore projected to breakeven around 2 years from today. 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 77% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
