$PL I’d separate adjusted profitability from true GAAP profitability.
Planet is essentially reaching adjusted profitability now. For FY2027 (ending Jan. 2027), management guides to
$425–441M revenue and
$0–10M positive adjusted EBITDA. Q1 revenue already grew 42% YoY to
$94.2M.
The bigger milestone is GAAP net profit. Current analyst estimates point roughly to:
* FY2027: still GAAP/EPS loss
* FY2028: around breakeven to profitable; one consensus source has EPS around +
$0.07
* FY2028–2029: I think this is the most realistic window for consistent GAAP profitability, assuming the current ~30–40% revenue growth continues.
What makes the setup particularly interesting is the operating leverage: Planet finished FY2026 with about
$900M backlog, up 79%, while FY2027 revenue guidance is only ~
$433M at the midpoint.
So my base case is adjusted profitable in 2026, GAAP profitable around 2027/28.
