In 2024, HYDROTECH achieves revenue of 23.1 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 8 years (CAGR: +3.0%). Significant drop of -27% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (4.9 M€), gross margin stands at 18.3 M€, i.e. a rate of 79%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 573 k€, representing 2.5% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-27%), EBITDA varies by -60%, reducing margin by 2.0 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.

This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
