Revenue and income statement
In 2024, FOURNIER RETAIL achieves revenue of 147.3 M€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +13.2%. Significant drop of -12% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (72.3 M€), gross margin stands at 75.0 M€, i.e. a rate of 51%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 2.5 M€, representing 1.7% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-12%), EBITDA varies by -62%, reducing margin by 2.2 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. The operating margin remains fragile, requiring cost vigilance. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 1.3 M€, i.e. 0.9% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 4%. This very low level reflects a solid financial structure, offering significant room for future investments or acquisitions. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 8%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 0.1 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 1.5% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.
