Alkami Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALKT) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. Alkami Technology, Inc. offers cloud-based digital banking solutions in the United States. The US$3.6b market-cap company posted a loss in its most recent financial year of US$63m and a latest trailing-twelve-month loss of US$46m shrinking the gap between loss and breakeven. The most pressing concern for investors is Alkami Technology's path to profitability – when will it breakeven? We've put together a brief outline of industry analyst expectations for the company, its year of breakeven and its implied growth rate.

Check out our latest analysis for Alkami Technology

According to the 10 industry analysts covering Alkami Technology, the consensus is that breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2025, before generating positive profits of US$28m in 2026. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year 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 103% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.

We're not going to go through company-specific developments for Alkami Technology given that this is a high-level summary, but, 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.

Before we wrap up, there’s one aspect worth mentioning. Alkami Technology currently 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. This means that the company has been operating purely on its equity investment and has no debt burden. This aspect reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
