negative EBITDA for the first two years By focusing on pricing and capacity, you can accelerate break-even from 26 months (February 2028) to under 18 months Initial annual revenue in 2026 is around $863,400, but high wages and fixed overhead of approximately $741,400 mean the business needs to rapidly increase treatment volume and average price per visit The goal is to move the EBITDA from a projected loss of $365,000 in Year 1 to a positive $157,000 by Year 3, primarily by raising capacity utilization across all services, especially high-value modalities like Hydrotherapy and Rehab Vet
