In 2025, COTEX achieves revenue of 1.2 M€. Over the period 2017-2025, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +10.7%. Slight decline of -2% vs 2024. After deducting consumption (629 k€), gross margin stands at 575 k€, i.e. a rate of 48%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 149 k€, representing 12.4% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-2%), EBITDA varies by -18%, reducing margin by 2.4 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. This level of operating margin is satisfactory for the sector. Net income is negative at -14 k€ (-1.1% of revenue), which will impact equity.

Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 22%. The balance between equity and debt is satisfactory. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 4.3 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 10.5% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
