The only way to know is to keep feeding him that amount and see if he keeps his current weight. If he keeps losing, then add just a little bit and wait and see again. Activity level will also change the amount of calories that he needs to maintain his weight. Plus, muscle burns more calories than fat, so if he starts adding muscle, he could need more food to maintain.
