Revenue and income statement

In 2025, AQUA achieves revenue of 1.5 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +1.4%). Significant drop of -22% vs 2024. After deducting consumption (329 k€), gross margin stands at 1.2 M€, i.e. a rate of 78%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 50 k€, representing 3.3% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-22%), EBITDA varies by -53%, reducing margin by 2.2 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.
