recouping
Regaining what's lost
Recouping is recovering something lost or expended, especially money.
A business recoups its investment when revenues exceed costs.
The word implies getting back to even rather than profiting: It took three years to recoup what we spent on renovations.
Sometimes used with a sense of making up for lost time or missed opportunities.
