Revenue and income statement
In 2024, LE GALBE BLEU achieves revenue of 434 k€. Over the period 2022-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +68.9%. Vs 2023, growth of +105% (212 k€ -> 434 k€). After deducting consumption (180 k€), gross margin stands at 254 k€, i.e. a rate of 58%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 131 k€, representing 30.1% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+105%), EBITDA varies by +27%, reducing margin by 18.4 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 175 k€, i.e. 40.2% 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 221%. 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 30%. The balance between equity and debt is satisfactory. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 9.0 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. Beyond 7 years, banks generally consider credit risk as high. Cash flow represents 34.5% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.

Working capital requirement (WCR) and payment terms
Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 16 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 5 days. The company must finance 11 days of gap between collections and payments. Inventory turnover is 749 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 743 days of revenue, i.e. 897 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2022-2024, WCR increased by +5994%, requiring additional financing.
