NORIAP : revenue, balance sheet and financial ratios

In 2025, NORIAP achieves revenue of 426.0 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 10 years (CAGR: +1.6%). Significant drop of -16% vs 2024. After deducting consumption (354.5 M€), gross margin stands at 71.4 M€, i.e. a rate of 17%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 15.5 M€, representing 3.6% of revenue. The operating margin remains fragile, requiring cost vigilance. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 4.9 M€, i.e. 1.2% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 53%. Debt remains under control: the company retains capacity to raise new debt if needed. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 48%. 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 3.3 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. This ratio remains within usual banking standards. Cash flow represents 3.2% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 194.64. 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 85.7x. Operating income very largely covers interest expenses: high safety margin.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 84 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 48 days. The gap of 36 days means the company finances its customers for over a month before being paid relative to supplier payments. This weighs on cash flow. Inventory turnover is 48 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). Overall, WCR represents 142 days of revenue, i.e. 167.7 M€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2025, WCR increased by +101%, requiring additional financing.
