Yahoo News When Will Team, Inc. (NYSE:TISI) Turn A Profit?
Team, Inc.'s (NYSE:TISI): Team, Inc. provides specialty industrial services in the United States, Canada, Europe, and internationally. The US$413m market-cap posted a loss in its most recent financial year of -US$63.1m and a latest trailing-twelve-month loss of -US$21.2m shrinking the gap between loss and breakeven. As path to profitability is the topic on TISI’s investors mind, I’ve decided to gauge market sentiment. Below I will provide a high-level summary of the industry analysts’ expectations for TISI.

TISI is bordering on breakeven, according to the 3 Commercial Services analysts. They expect the company to post a final loss in 2019, before turning a profit of US$6.0m in 2020. Therefore, TISI is expected to breakeven roughly a few months from now. How fast will TISI have to grow each year in order to reach the breakeven point by 2020? Working backwards from analyst estimates, it turns out that they expect the company to grow 117% 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.
Given this is a high-level overview, I won’t go into details of TISI’s upcoming projects, however, take into account that by and large a high growth rate is not out of the ordinary, particularly when a company is in a period of investment.
One thing I would like to bring into light with TISI is its relatively high level of debt. Generally, the rule of thumb is debt shouldn’t exceed 40% of your equity, which in TISI’s case is 77%. A higher level of debt requires more stringent capital management which increases the risk in investing in the loss-making company.
