Phreesia, Inc. (NYSE:PHR) is possibly approaching a major achievement in its business, so we would like to shine some light on the company. Phreesia, Inc. provides an integrated SaaS-based software and payment platform for the healthcare industry in the United States and Canada. The US$1.4b market-cap company announced a latest loss of US$59m on 31 January 2025 for its most recent financial year result. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Phreesia 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.

Consensus from 14 of the American Healthcare Services analysts is that Phreesia is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2026, before generating positive profits of US$13m in 2027. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven roughly 2 years from today. What rate will the company have to grow year-on-year in order to breakeven on this date? Using a line of best fit, we calculated an average annual growth rate of 83%, which is rather optimistic! If this rate turns out to be too aggressive, the company may become profitable much later than analysts predict.

We're not going to go through company-specific developments for Phreesia given that this is a high-level summary, however, keep in mind that generally healthcare tech companies, depending on the stage of product development, have irregular periods of cash flow. So, a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.

One thing we’d like to point out is that The company has managed its capital prudently, with debt making up 0.7% of equity. This means that it has predominantly funded its operations from equity capital, and its low debt obligation reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.
