Revenue and income statement

In 2024, MEA achieves revenue of 593 k€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +1.7%). Vs 2023: +7%. After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 593 k€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 167 k€, representing 28.1% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+7%), EBITDA varies by -6%, reducing margin by 3.9 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 110 k€, i.e. 18.5% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
