Flux Power Holdings, Inc., through its subsidiary Flux Power, Inc., designs, develops, manufactures, and sells lithium-ion energy storage solutions for lift trucks, airport ground support equipment, and other industrial and commercial applications in the North America. The US$68m market-cap company’s loss lessened since it announced a US$16m loss in the full financial year, compared to the latest trailing-twelve-month loss of US$14m, as it approaches breakeven. As path to profitability is the topic on Flux Power Holdings' investors mind, we've decided to gauge market sentiment. In this article, we will touch on the expectations for the company's growth and when analysts expect it to become profitable.

Flux Power Holdings is bordering on breakeven, according to the 3 American Electrical analysts. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2023, before generating positive profits of US$928k in 2024. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year from today. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2024? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 67% year-on-year, on average, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.

Given this is a high-level overview, we won’t go into details of Flux Power Holdings' upcoming projects, however, keep in mind that typically 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 issue worth mentioning. Flux Power Holdings currently has a relatively high level of debt. Typically, debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in Flux Power Holdings' case is 48%. Note that a higher debt obligation increases the risk in investing in the loss-making company.
