HOTEL DES MARINS : revenue, balance sheet and financial ratios

In 2024, HOTEL DES MARINS achieves revenue of 1.3 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +3.9%). Slight decline of -10% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (52 k€), gross margin stands at 1.3 M€, i.e. a rate of 96%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 369 k€, representing 27.7% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-10%), EBITDA varies by -24%, reducing margin by 5.3 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 122 k€, i.e. 9.2% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 524%. 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 15%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 5.2 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 26.5% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 267.48. Concretely, the company has €2 of liquid assets for every €1 of short-term debt: no cash risk within 12 months. The interest coverage ratio (= EBIT / Interest expenses) is 11.9x. Operating income very largely covers interest expenses: high safety margin.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 3 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 14 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 11 days. Inventory turnover is 1 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). Fast turnover, sign of good inventory management. Overall, WCR represents 28 days of revenue, i.e. 105 k€ to permanently finance. Notable WCR improvement over the period (-54%), freeing up cash.
