Revenue and income statement
In 2021, CARAT CAPITAL achieves revenue of 5.0 M€. Over the period 2016-2021, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +35.9%. Vs 2020, growth of +19% (4.2 M€ -> 5.0 M€). After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 5.0 M€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 1.7 M€, representing 35.0% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+19%), EBITDA varies by +1%, reducing margin by 6.0 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 1.2 M€, i.e. 24.4% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 33%. Debt remains under control: the company retains capacity to raise new debt if needed. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 65%. This high autonomy means the company finances most of its assets through equity, a sign of strength. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 1.1 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 25.7% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
