In 2024, COGNET achieves revenue of 880 k€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +18.5%. Vs 2023, growth of +77% (497 k€ -> 880 k€). After deducting consumption (397 k€), gross margin stands at 482 k€, i.e. a rate of 55%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 170 k€, representing 19.3% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+77%), EBITDA varies by +36%, reducing margin by 5.8 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 116 k€, i.e. 13.2% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
