After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 398 k€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity.

Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+21%), EBITDA varies by +12%, reducing margin by 4.0 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue.
