Cesca Therapeutics Inc’s (NASDAQ:KOOL) Profit Outlook
Cesca Therapeutics Inc’s (NASDAQ:KOOL): Cesca Therapeutics Inc. develops, commercializes, and markets a range of automated technologies and products for cell-based therapeutics in the United States, China, rest of Asia, Europe, and internationally. The US$8.18M market-cap posted a loss in its most recent financial year of -US$4.57M and a latest trailing-twelve-month loss of -US$5.43M leading to an even wider gap between loss and breakeven. As path to profitability is the topic on KOOL’s investors mind, I’ve decided to gauge market sentiment. Below I will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for KOOL.

KOOL is bordering on breakeven, according to analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2021, before turning a profit of US$1.42M in 2022. Therefore, KOOL is expected to breakeven roughly 4 years from now. What rate will KOOL 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 37.06%, which is rather optimistic! If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, KOOL may become profitable much later than analysts predict.
I’m not going to go through company-specific developments for KOOL given that this is a high-level summary, though, take into account that typically a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.
One thing I’d like to point out is that KOOL has managed its capital prudently, with debt making up 23.14% of equity. This means that KOOL has predominantly funded its operations from equity capital, and its low debt obligation reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
