What is the expected free cash flow for Inseego at the end of the year, considering the uncertainties caused by the COVID lockdowns in Asia and other factors 
h and improved profitability.
That is why we are being as, as transparent as possible and sharing with everyone the near-term challenges that face us. But as I said before, we believe these challenges will be measured in months, not quarters or years. I want to be clear on how excited I am about the opportunity that lies ahead in 5G for the enterprise. Inseego has become the leader in 5G edge with our high performance mobile and FWA solutions.
In the coming months, the pieces will be put in place for mainstream adoption as the carriers evolves their 5G data plans, and we move beyond the renewed COVID lockdowns. We believe these factors, combined with our growing pipeline, and expanding go to market will put us back on track to achieving our financial goals. Thank you for your interest in Inseego. Now let's go to Q&A.

Thank you. [Operator instructions] Today's first question comes from Lance Vitanza with Cowen and Company. Please go ahead.
Lance Vitanza -- Cowen and Company -- Analyst
Hey, guys. Thanks, and congratulations on the nice quarter. I guess I had a couple of questions. The first is, Ashish mentioned the China lockdowns could cause a bigger impact in to 2Q, I think you mentioned in particular with respect to new product launches.
Could you provide any more color on maybe the magnitude of the delay? And and is that revenue likely to-- I think you addressed this in terms of the months rather than quarters commentary. But specific to what you're seeing with those lockdowns, is this revenue that you think likely gets pushed into the second half? Or is there some risk that this revenue is lost forever for whatever reason?
Ashish Sharma -- Chief Executive Officer
Hey, Lance. Nice talking to you. Hope you're doing well. So, yes.
To answer your question. It really is a slight delay, is how I would say it. We're working through all of the partners out there in Asia as they go to these lockdowns. It's just uncertainty.
That's all I would say at this point. We could -- we'll come back and provide more details as we see how things unfold. It could happen, I -- that's why I said that these delays could happen. But we are really tightly managing them right now.
But it's just the overall global uncertainty as that's kicked in through to what's happening with COVID in Asia. That's why we're just saying it's a little bit of a delay. But beyond that, I mean, we're working through all the challenges we are seeing out there.

So, on the last quarter, I think maybe the last couple of quarters, you guys obviously had talked about a -- in outlook for 2022 of for 25% year-over-year growth. Obviously, that's that pro forma for the Ctrack South Africa sale. And I think you'd also been expecting to be free cash flow positive by year end. I know that there's a lot of uncertainties here, but just in terms of thinking about how we model, the best that we can do at this point, -- would you be comfortable putting, is it -- should we be thinking more like a 15% year-over-year growth or or more or less than that? And could you help us think about that -- the magnitude of a potential when you finish the year, where do you think you'll be? Burning -- 10 million a year, burning -- more or less than that? Something that we can put some goalpost around those two things would be great.
And then I have one follow up for Bob, if you don't mind.
Ashish Sharma -- Chief Executive Officer
Hey, Lance. I will answer and then have Bob provided the input. So as I said earlier, to me, this is more of delays than anything else. So what I would say is, is as things come back online quickly in China and as you know, the second point that that I mentioned earlier in the remarks was the 5G data plans get put in place by the leading carriers, we're really ready to go like we've got the portfolio, we've got the products, and we're super excited about all the pipeline of opportunities we are working through with lots of hundreds of enterprises right now.
So to me, this is more of a delay. And if
