Achievements
The audit confirmed an operating profit
amounting to 9.9% of revenues (compared to 9.6%, excluding disposal
gains, in 2019). At €30.9 million, the net profit group share rose
slightly.
At €55.2 million, free cash flow rose sharply
(conversion rate of net profit into cash: 136%). Net cash and cash
equivalents increased by €47.6 million to €265.9 million.
Outlook
As usual, forecasts for the current year will be
posted along with the Group's 1st quarter revenues (on May 5, after
the closing of the stock exchange).
NEURONES' strong market presence in the Cloud,
digital services and cybersecurity is an asset which enables the
company to benefit from the acceleration of the digital
transformations in progress.
At the Annual General Meeting on June 3, in
order to thank shareholders for their loyalty and make up for the
years in which a low or no dividend was paid, the Board of
Directors will propose the distribution of an exceptional dividend
of €2 per share (representing a total amount close to the cash
generated in 2020).
