Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 2.6 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 1.2% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.
