Solvency and debt ratios
The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 375%. 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 20%. The balance between equity and debt is satisfactory. Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 13.7 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. Beyond 7 years, banks generally consider credit risk as high. Cash flow represents 19.0% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.

Average customer payment term: 27 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 24 days. The company must finance 3 days of gap between collections and payments. Inventory turnover is 466 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). This high level ties up cash and potentially creates obsolescence risk. Overall, WCR represents 479 days of revenue, i.e. 1.3 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2020-2024, WCR increased by +56%, requiring additional financing.
