Revenue and income statement

In 2024, HULTEC EUROPE achieves revenue of 13.0 M€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +7.3%. Vs 2023, growth of +14% (11.4 M€ -> 13.0 M€). After deducting consumption (10.6 M€), gross margin stands at 2.4 M€, i.e. a rate of 19%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 302 k€, representing 2.3% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+14%), EBITDA varies by -64%, reducing margin by 5.0 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 202 k€, i.e. 1.6% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

Average customer payment term: 52 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 142 days. Excellent situation: suppliers finance 90 days of the operating cycle (retail model). Inventory turnover is 156 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 189 days of revenue, i.e. 6.9 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +31%, requiring additional financing.
