Vs 2023, growth of +19% (106.6 M€ -> 126.3 M€). After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 126.3 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 61.5 M€, representing 48.7% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+19%), EBITDA varies by +14%, reducing margin by 2.2 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 36.9 M€, i.e. 29.3% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
