Q2 Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:QTWO) About To Shift From Loss To Profit

With the business potentially at an important milestone, we thought we'd take a closer look at Q2 Holdings, Inc.'s (NYSE:QTWO) future prospects. Q2 Holdings, Inc. provides digital solutions to financial institutions, financial technology companies, FinTechs, and alternative finance companies (Alt-FIs) in the United States. The US$4.8b market-cap company announced a latest loss of US$39m on 31 December 2024 for its most recent financial year result. The most pressing concern for investors is Q2 Holdings' path to profitability – when will it breakeven? In this article, we will touch on the expectations for the company's growth and when analysts expect it to become profitable.

Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit.

According to the 14 industry analysts covering Q2 Holdings, the consensus is that breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2024, before generating positive profits of US$6.3m in 2025. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven roughly 12 months from now or less. We calculated the rate at which the company must grow to meet the consensus forecasts predicting breakeven within 12 months. It turns out an average annual growth rate of 138% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.

Underlying developments driving Q2 Holdings' growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, however, 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.
