CollPlant Biotechnologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:CLGN) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. CollPlant Biotechnologies Ltd., a regenerative and aesthetic medicine company, focuses on three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of tissues and organs, and medical aesthetics in the United States, Canada, Israel, Europe, and internationally. The US$30m market-cap company announced a latest loss of US$17m on 31 December 2024 for its most recent financial year result. As path to profitability is the topic on CollPlant Biotechnologies' investors mind, we've decided to gauge market sentiment. Below we will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for the company.

AI is about to change healthcare. These 20 stocks are working on everything from early diagnostics to drug discovery. The best part - they are all under $10bn in marketcap - there is still time to get in early.

CollPlant Biotechnologies is bordering on breakeven, according to some American Biotechs analysts. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2025, before generating positive profits of US$1.1m in 2026. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven just over a year from now. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2026? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 57% year-on-year, on average, which is rather optimistic! 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 CollPlant Biotechnologies' upcoming projects, though, keep in mind that generally a biotech has lumpy cash flows which are contingent on the product type and stage of development the company is in. This means that a high growth rate is not unusual, especially if the company is currently in an investment period.
