Revenue and income statement
In 2023, SQUARE EVENTS achieves revenue of 2.0 M€. Over the period 2017-2023, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +7.2%. Vs 2022, growth of +14% (1.8 M€ -> 2.0 M€). After deducting consumption (3 k€), gross margin stands at 2.0 M€, i.e. a rate of 100%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 3 k€, representing 0.1% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+14%), EBITDA varies by -98%, reducing margin by 6.7 pts. This reflects costs rising faster than revenue. The operating margin remains fragile, requiring cost vigilance. Ultimately, net income (= EBIT +/- financial result +/- exceptional - corporate tax) amounts to 40 k€, i.e. 2.0% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
