Consensus from 6 of the American Healthcare analysts is that GeneDx Holdings is on the verge of breakeven. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2025, before turning a profit of US$15m in 2026. So, the company is predicted to breakeven approximately 2 years 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 94%, which is extremely buoyant.
