In 2024, AGORA achieves revenue of 1.2 M€. Over the period 2021-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +33.9%. Vs 2023, growth of +61% (765 k€ -> 1.2 M€). After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 1.2 M€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 393 k€, representing 31.9% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+61%), EBITDA varies by +10%, reducing margin by 14.7 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 1.5 M€, i.e. 121.1% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 46%. Debt remains under control: the company retains capacity to raise new debt if needed. 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 5.0 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 217.3% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
