Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 584%. Critical situation: debt significantly exceeds equity, severely limiting borrowing capacity and exposing the company to default risk. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 13%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 35.9 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. Beyond 7 years, banks generally consider credit risk as high. Cash flow represents 2.8% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 14 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 54 days.
