Revenue and income statement
In 2024, NORD PAL PLAST achieves revenue of 25.3 M€. Over the period 2018-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +28.1%. Vs 2023, growth of +15% (22.0 M€ -> 25.3 M€). After deducting consumption (14.4 M€), gross margin stands at 10.9 M€, i.e. a rate of 43%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 1.2 M€, representing 4.9% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+15%), EBITDA varies by -56%, reducing margin by 7.8 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 153 k€, i.e. 0.6% 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 314%. 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 17%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 5.3 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 6.7% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. Satisfactory level allowing partial financing of growth.
