Revenue and income statement
In 2023, VERNA ARCHITECTES achieves revenue of 435 k€. Over the period 2016-2023, the company shows strong growth with a CAGR (compound annual growth rate) of +7.8%. Vs 2022, growth of +14% (380 k€ -> 435 k€). After deducting consumption (312 €), gross margin stands at 435 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 15 k€, representing 3.5% of revenue. Warning negative scissor effect: despite revenue change (+14%), EBITDA varies by -72%, reducing margin by 11.1 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 12 k€, i.e. 2.9% of revenue. This profit can be retained or distributed to shareholders.
