Revenue and income statement

In 2020, CEA 63 achieves revenue of 2.1 M€. Over the period 2017-2020, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +24.0%. Vs 2019: +8%. After deducting consumption (1.4 M€), gross margin stands at 611 k€, i.e. a rate of 30%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 73 k€, representing 3.5% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+8%), EBITDA varies by -35%, reducing margin by 2.3 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.

This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
