In 2024, RIVER achieves revenue of 1.1 M€. Revenue is growing positively over 9 years (CAGR: +3.1%). Vs 2023: +2%. After deducting consumption (34 k€), gross margin stands at 1.1 M€, i.e. a rate of 97%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 493 k€, representing 44.4% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+2%), EBITDA varies by -6%, reducing margin by 3.8 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 198 k€, i.e. 17.8% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
