Revenue and income statement

In 2025, CRIC achieves revenue of 353 k€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +3.5%). Vs 2024, growth of +37% (257 k€ -> 353 k€). After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 353 k€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 1 k€, representing 0.3% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+37%), EBITDA varies by -97%, reducing margin by 14.9 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 225 k€, i.e. 63.7% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
