WALLIX GROUP SA's (EPA:ALLIX): WALLIX GROUP SA, a software company, provides cyber security solutions worldwide. The company’s loss has recently broadened since it announced a -€3.3m loss in the full financial year, compared to the latest trailing-twelve-month loss of -€5.2m, moving it further away from breakeven. As path to profitability is the topic on ALLIX’s investors mind, I’ve decided to gauge market sentiment. I’ve put together a brief outline of industry analyst expectations for ALLIX, its year of breakeven and its implied growth rate.

Consensus from the 2 Software analysts is ALLIX is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2020, before generating positive profits of €2.4m in 2021. ALLIX is therefore projected to breakeven around a few months from now. What rate will ALLIX have to grow year-on-year in order to breakeven on this date? Using a line of best fit, I calculated an average annual growth rate of 101%, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
I’m not going to go through company-specific developments for ALLIX given that this is a high-level summary, but, keep in mind that generally a high forecast growth rate is not unusual for a company that is currently undergoing an investment period.
One thing I’d like to point out is that ALLIX has managed its capital judiciously, with debt making up 3.9% of equity. This means that ALLIX has predominantly funded its operations from equity capital,and its low debt obligation reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
