In 2023, CITEC achieves revenue of 9.0 M€. Over the period 2016-2023, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +9.0%. Vs 2022, growth of +19% (7.5 M€ -> 9.0 M€). After deducting consumption (1.9 M€), gross margin stands at 7.0 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 437 k€, representing 4.9% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+19%), EBITDA varies by -53%, reducing margin by 7.4 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. The operating margin remains fragile, requiring cost vigilance. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 302 k€, i.e. 3.4% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
