Break-even

The month in the project timeline when cumulative cash flow turns positive — the point at which total revenues received exceed total costs spent. Before break-even, the project requires ongoing funding.

Earlier break-even means less risk and lower total finance costs. It is a key indicator of project timeline risk.
