Profitability affected by the Group’s ongoing transformation
As announced, the evolution of the Group’s business mix, its ongoing restructuring and the investments required to transform its business model are weighing on its profitability.
Total operating expenses came to €44.9 million in the first half of 2017, an increase of 16%. EBITDA was thus €8.8 million, versus €12.3 million in the first half of 2016, giving a margin of 16.4% versus 24.2% a year earlier because:
Once amortisation and depreciation are taken into account, as well as other non-recurring expenses, the Group recorded an operating profit of €5.5 million. Given financial expenses of €0.4 million and a tax burden of €1.9 million, consolidated profit was €3.3 million and attributable net profit €3.0 million.
Net cash position up €2.8 million to €81.4 million
On this basis and thanks to good control over working capital requirements, operating cash flow was €5.5 million, down on the H1 2016 figure of €8.4 million, whilst net cash flow was €2.8 million. The net cash position was €81.4 million, versus €78.6 million at the end of December 2016 and €69.0 million at the end of June 2016.
Outlook
The Group is continuing its transformation by accelerating its successful strategy in the United States.
Next publication: 3rd quarter revenue and results, on 19 October, 2017.
