Current operating result stood at €168.4 million over the financial year, down 5.2%, and represented 13.5% of sales. This decline resulted from factors that are both cyclical and structural, namely gaining market share, the rise in the price of raw materials, fluctuations in the main invoicing currencies and the integration of recently-acquired companies (iHome Systems, Myfox). On a like-for-like basis, current operating result would have been virtually stable at €178.0 million, and as such would have represented 14.3% of sales. GROWTH IN NET PROFIT — Consolidated net profit was €157.7 million, an increase of 10.1%. It takes into account a negligible net non-recurring operating expense, a net financial expense of €5.9 million, which mainly includes unrealised exchange differences, and income tax of €3.1 million, a particularly low level due notably to the recovery of the tax on dividends. Excluding tax rebates, net profit would have been €135.4 million, and would have fallen by 5.5%. Ultimately, profitability remained at a very satisfactory level with a return on capital invested (ROCE) of 19.7% (1) . NET FINANCIAL DEBT —

The balance sheet was further strengthened. The net cash surplus rose indeed from €15.5 million to €104.6 million (2) year-on-year, an increase of €89.1 million, and shareholders’ equity grew to €770.7 million. Return on capital invested or employed (ROCE) is equal to the ratio between current operating result, after normative tax, and the sum of shareholders’ (1) equity (with the effects of goodwill impairment being neutralised) and the net financial debt (see note 4.3). The net cash surplus corresponds to the difference between cash and cash equivalents and financial liabilities. It takes into account both deferrals in (2) payments and earnout on acquisitions as well as liabilities related to put options granted to holders of non-controlling interests (see note 7.2.3).
