Yatra Online, Inc. (NASDAQ:YTRA) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. Yatra Online, Inc. operates as an online travel company in India and internationally. The US$50m market-cap company posted a loss in its most recent financial year of ₹351m and a latest trailing-twelve-month loss of ₹65m shrinking the gap between loss and breakeven. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Yatra Online will turn a profit, with the big question being “when will the company breakeven?” In this article, we will touch on the expectations for the company's growth and when analysts expect it to become profitable.

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.

According to some industry analysts covering Yatra Online, breakeven is near. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2024, before turning a profit of ₹205m in 2025. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven roughly 12 months from now or less. How fast will the company have to grow to reach the consensus forecasts that anticipate breakeven by 2025? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 94% 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.
