Revenue and income statement
In 2024, PL CONSULTANTS achieves revenue of 204 k€. Revenue is growing positively over 5 years (CAGR: +0.2%). Slight decline of -8% vs 2023. After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 204 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 189 k€, representing 92.6% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (-8%), EBITDA varies by -10%, reducing margin by 2.2 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 120 k€, i.e. 58.8% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
