the first year (2026) due to heavy upfront capital expenditure (CAPEX) and fixed overhead, but they can reach breakeven within 22 months (October 2027) This guide outlines how to accelerate profitability by focusing on margin expansion and operational efficiency We target raising the contribution margin from 480% (2026) to over 55% by 2030, primarily through optimizing the service mix
