The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 594%. Critical situation: debt significantly exceeds equity, severely limiting borrowing capacity and exposing the company to default risk.

Cash flow represents 38.0% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
