According to the industry analysts covering BMRA, breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2021, before generating positive profits of US$7.43M in 2022. BMRA is therefore projected to breakeven around 4 years from today. In order to meet this breakeven date, I calculated the rate at which BMRA must grow year-on-year. It turns out an average annual growth rate of 57.33% is expected, which is extremely buoyant. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.

Underlying developments driving BMRA’s growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, however, bear 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 I wrap up, there’s one aspect worth mentioning. BMRA currently has no debt on its balance sheet, which is rare for a loss-making loss-making, growth company, which usually has a high level of debt relative to its equity. BMRA currently operates purely off its shareholder funding and has no debt obligation, reducing concerns around repayments and making it a less risky investment.
