In 2024, SPHERIA achieves revenue of 417 k€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +7.0%. Vs 2023, growth of +40% (299 k€ -> 417 k€). After deducting consumption (0 €), gross margin stands at 417 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 207 k€, representing 49.6% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+40%), EBITDA varies by +10%, reducing margin by 13.4 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 37 k€, i.e. 8.8% 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 704%. 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 11%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Debt repayment capacity (= Financial debt / Cash flow) indicates it would take 21.7 years of cash flow to repay all financial debt. Beyond 7 years, banks generally consider credit risk as high. Cash flow represents 40.4% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment. This high level provides strong self-financing capacity.
