Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 6.8 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 20.9% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
