In 2024, TRANSDEV SAINT DIZIER achieves revenue of 453 k€. Over the period 2016-2024, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +5.1%. Vs 2023: +0%. After deducting consumption (216 k€), gross margin stands at 237 k€, i.e. a rate of 52%. This ratio measures the ability to generate value from commercial activity. EBITDA (= Gross margin - Personnel expenses - Taxes) reaches 136 k€, representing 29.9% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+0%), EBITDA varies by -39%, reducing margin by 19.6 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 131 k€, i.e. 28.8% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.

The debt ratio (= Financial debt / Equity x 100) stands at 0%. This very low level reflects a solid financial structure, offering significant room for future investments or acquisitions. Financial autonomy (= Equity / Total assets x 100) reaches 11%. Low autonomy: the company heavily depends on external financing (banks, suppliers). Cash flow represents 3.2% of revenue. Cash flow measures resources generated by operations, available for investment and debt repayment.

The liquidity ratio (= Current assets / Current liabilities) stands at 108.77. Concretely, the company has €2 of liquid assets for every €1 of short-term debt: no cash risk within 12 months. The interest coverage ratio (= EBIT / Interest expenses) is 1.6x. Coverage is limited: any activity downturn would jeopardize interest payments.

Working capital requirement (WCR) measures the cash timing gap between customer collections and supplier/inventory payments. Average customer payment term: 788 days (formula: Customer receivables / Revenue incl. VAT x 360). Supplier term: 82 days. The gap of 706 days means the company finances its customers for over a month before being paid relative to supplier payments. This weighs on cash flow. Inventory turnover is 25 days (= Average inventory / Cost of goods x 360). Fast turnover, sign of good inventory management. Overall, WCR represents 677 days of revenue, i.e. 853 k€ to permanently finance. Over 2016-2024, WCR increased by +373%, requiring additional financing.
