CYVOR : revenue, balance sheet and financial ratios

In 2024, CYVOR achieves revenue of 2.8 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +1.4%). Slight decline of -6% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (1.6 M€), gross margin stands at 1.1 M€, i.e. a rate of 41%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 103 k€, representing 3.7% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-6%), EBITDA varies by -40%, reducing margin by 2.1 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 88 k€, i.e. 3.2% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 48%. Debt remains under control: the company retains capacity to raise new debt if needed. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 53%. This high autonomy means the company finances most of its assets through equity, a sign of strength. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 3.7 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 3.4% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 398.15. Concretely, the company has €2 of liquid assets for every €1 of short-term debt: no cash risk within 12 months. The interest coverage ratio (= EBIT / Interest expenses) is 12.5x. Operating income very largely covers interest expenses: high safety margin.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 1 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 24 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 23 days. Inventory turnover is 116 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 102 days of revenue, i.e. 785 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +39%, requiring additional financing.
