Achievements
NEURONES enjoyed another year of sustained
growth in 2024 (+ 9.3%, of which + 8.6% organic compared
with + 0.7% for the Consulting and Digital Services market),
while net profit grew by 7.8%.
Free cash flow rose sharply, with a reduction in
working capital requirement (- €8.5m) and capital expenditure
(Capex) back to its usual level (€11.8m after €17.9m invested in
the previous financial year, mainly in the Group's SecNumCloud
sovereign and secure cloud platform).
Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the year
rose to €319.5m (or €13 per share).
Outlook
As usual, forecasts for the current year will be
posted along with the Group's 1st quarter revenues (on May 7, after
the closing of the stock exchange). Driven by solid underlying
trends (AI, cloud, cybersecurity, digital, data), NEURONES is well
positioned to achieve another year of profitable growth.
At the Shareholders' Meeting on June 5, the
Board will suggest paying a dividend of €1.3 per share for 2024
(compared with €1.2 the previous year).
