Revenue and income statement

In 2024, E3R achieves revenue of 7.3 M€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +8.7%. Vs 2023: +7%. After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 7.3 M€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 2.2 M€, representing 30.8% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+7%), EBITDA varies by -7%, reducing margin by 4.7 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 8.0 M€, i.e. 110.6% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
