Revenue and income statement
In 2024, FE SAINT CHARLES achieves revenue of 2.6 M€. Over the period 2018-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +28.8%. Significant drop of -19% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 2.6 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 2.0 M€, representing 76.9% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-19%), EBITDA varies by -24%, reducing margin by 4.9 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 799 k€, i.e. 31.2% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
