to 26 months (February 2028) Initial CAPEX of $63,000 and negative EBITDA in the first two years require substantial working capital-up to $661,000 in required minimum cash The fastest path to profitability is shifting the sales mix toward higher-value Professional Tuning Services (moving from 40% to 60% of sales mix by 2030) and securing Institutional Maintenance Contracts Focusing on technician utilization and increasing the average order size from 1 to 2 units per order by 2028 will accelerate payback from 42 months\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv
