Market Sentiment Around Loss-Making Income Asset Management Group Limited (ASX:IAM)

Simply Wall St.
05 May

We feel now is a pretty good time to analyse Income Asset Management Group Limited's (ASX:IAM) business as it appears the company may be on the cusp of a considerable accomplishment. Income Asset Management Group Limited engages in the provision of financial product solutions in cash/deposits and fixed income in Australia. The AU$20m market-cap company posted a loss in its most recent financial year of AU$14m and a latest trailing-twelve-month loss of AU$12m shrinking the gap between loss and breakeven. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Income Asset Management Group 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.

Income Asset Management Group is bordering on breakeven, according to some Australian Diversified Financial analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2025, before turning a profit of AU$4.0m in 2026. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year from now. In order to meet this breakeven date, we calculated the rate at which the company must grow year-on-year. It turns out an average annual growth rate of 115% is expected, which signals high confidence from analysts. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
