EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches -25.6 Bn€, representing -897.8% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-5%), EBITDA varies by -1323%, reducing margin by 837.7 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 375%. Critical situation: debt significantly exceeds equity, severely limiting borrowing capacity and exposing the company to default risk.

Cash flow represents 88.2% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 501 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 6 days. The gap of 495 days means the company finances its customers for over a month before being paid relative to supplier payments. This weighs on cash flow. Inventory turnover is 227 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 307 days of revenue, i.e. 2.4 Bn€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +29%, requiring additional financing.
