We feel now is a pretty good time to analyse Fortress Biotech, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:FBIO) business as it appears the company may be on the cusp of a considerable accomplishment. Fortress Biotech, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, develops and commercializes pharmaceutical and biotechnology products.

The most pressing concern for investors is Fortress Biotech's path to profitability – when will it breakeven? Below we will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for the company.
Check out our latest analysis for Fortress Biotech
Consensus from 3 of the American Biotechs analysts is that Fortress Biotech is on the verge of breakeven. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2023, before generating positive profits of US$11m in 2024. The company is therefore projected to breakeven just over a year from now. How fast will the company have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2024? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 69% year-on-year, on average, which is rather optimistic! Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.
