Revenue and income statement
In 2024, CAFE DU METRO achieves revenue of 2.5 M€. Over the period 2022-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +76.2%. Vs 2023, growth of +31% (1.9 M€ -> 2.5 M€). After deducting consumption (541 k€), gross margin stands at 2.0 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 935 k€, representing 37.2% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+31%), EBITDA varies by +22%, reducing margin by 2.7 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. This high EBITDA margin provides strong self-financing capacity and resilience to uncertainties. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 503 k€, i.e. 20.0% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
