Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 254%. Critical situation: debt significantly exceeds equity, severely limiting borrowing capacity and exposing the company to default risk. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 18%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 97.2 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. Beyond 7 years, banks generally consider credit risk as high. Cash flow represents 0.4% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.

Working capital requirement (WCR) and payment terms
Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 53 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 35 days. The company must finance 18 days of gap between collections and payments. Inventory turnover is 93 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 109 days of revenue, i.e. 190 k€ to permanently finance.
