JAG : revenue, balance sheet and financial ratios

In 2024, JAG achieves revenue of 11.3 M€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +18.7%. Slight decline of -7% vs 2022. After deducting consumption (8.4 M€), gross margin stands at 2.9 M€, i.e. a rate of 26%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 1.1 M€, representing 10.0% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-7%), EBITDA varies by -31%, reducing margin by 3.3 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. This level of operating margin is satisfactory for the sector. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 824 k€, i.e. 7.3% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 2%. 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 59%. 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 0.1 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This short period demonstrates excellent debt sustainability. Cash flow represents 7.2% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. Satisfactory level allowing partial financing of growth.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 229.77. 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 0.1x. Danger: operating income does not cover interest charges, unsustainable situation.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 25 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 41 days. Favorable situation: supplier credit is longer than customer credit by 16 days. Inventory turnover is 39 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). Fast turnover, sign of good inventory management. Overall, WCR represents 62 days of revenue, i.e. 1.9 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +345%, requiring additional financing.
