AGENCE MICKAEL BUFFAZ : revenue, balance sheet and financial ratios

In 2024, AGENCE MICKAEL BUFFAZ achieves revenue of 436 k€. Over the period 2018-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +31.6%. Vs 2022, growth of +30% (335 k€ -> 436 k€). After deducting consumption (136 k€), gross margin stands at 300 k€, i.e. a rate of 69%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 97 k€, representing 22.2% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+30%), EBITDA varies by +12%, reducing margin by 3.6 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. This high EBITDA margin provides strong self-financing capacity and resilience to uncertainties. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 82 k€, i.e. 18.8% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 6%. This very low level reflects a solid financial structure, offering significant room for future investments or acquisitions. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 68%. This high autonomy means the company finances most of its assets through equity, a sign of strength. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 0.1 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 21.9% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 261.15. Concretely, the company has €2 of liquid assets for every €1 of short-term debt: no cash risk within 12 months.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 60 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 3 days. The gap of 57 days means the company finances its customers for over a month before being paid relative to supplier payments. This weighs on cash flow. Overall, WCR represents 52 days of revenue, i.e. 63 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2018-2024, WCR increased by +2230%, requiring additional financing.
