Revenue and income statement

In 2024, BAC achieves revenue of 413 k€. Over the period 2014-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +5.9%. Significant drop of -29% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (230 k€), gross margin stands at 183 k€, i.e. a rate of 44%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 142 k€, representing 34.3% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-29%), EBITDA varies by -35%, reducing margin by 3.2 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.
