If "still losing money after years of losses, might break even in a couple of years or might not" can be defined as on the "path to profit", can any company not be described that way? Does the phrase mean anything?

It means that while earnings are negative (i.e. no profits yet), the first derivative is positive (i.e. it will reach profitability if the trend continues, it is on the path to profits).

No, not all companies can be described that way.
