In 2024, ICS achieves revenue of 243 k€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +13.4%. Vs 2023: +3%. After deducting consumption (4 k€), gross margin stands at 239 k€, i.e. a rate of 98%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 10 k€, representing 4.0% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+3%), EBITDA varies by -85%, reducing margin by 23.3 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 321 k€, i.e. 132.0% 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 110%. Debt level is high: negotiating margin with banks is reduced. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 46%. This high autonomy means the company finances most of its assets through equity, a sign of strength. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 2.8 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 135.1% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
