As in the previous year, it includes €5.4 million in royalties on a licence agreement that will expire in June 2024. The growth in activity explains this performance, which was nevertheless impacted by the increase in materials, procurement, logistics and energies costs as well as by a higher employee’s costs.

Operating income was positive at €11.9 million against €7.1 million in 2021, increase of €4.8 million. The financial result was negative €2.3 million against positive €0.9 million in 2021 mainly due to mainly due to a depreciation on bond investments as a result of the unpredictable and very rapid increase in central bank rates. In 2022, net charges of consolidated tax totalled €1.3 million against €0.4 million in 2021. The share in the results of companies accounted by the equity method was positive at €0.2 million.

The cash flow from operations, remains positive: €13.3 million against €12.1 million in 2021. The consolidated net financial structure is positive and amounted to €122.4 million, decreasing.
Regarding Gévelot SA, the Group’s Holding company, turnover for 2022 consisting of rents and services, amounted to €1.0 million, against €0.8 million in 2021, increase due to the rental yield of the recent commercial real estate acquisition. Gévelot SA operating income remained negative: €1.0 million same level as in 2021. The financial result showed a €0.2 million loss against a profit of €2.4 million in 2021. It consists mainly of a dividend of €1.5 million received in 2022 from PCM SA (idem 2021), net foreign exchange gains of €0.3 million (€0.8 million in 2021). An impairment on recent bond investments has been recorded at the end of 2022 amounted to €2.1 million.
Extraordinary income was negative by €19K same as in 2021. In the absence of its own tax, and after €675K of tax savings related to the tax integration scheme, Gévelot S.A.'s net corporate income in 2022 showed a loss at €0.6 million compared to a positive €1.8 million in 2021. The Combined General Meeting of Shareholders, which will meet on Wednesday, 15 June 2023, will be proposed the distribution of a dividend of 4 euros per share.
It is planned to merge Rosclodan SA, which holds 8.2% of our Company's capital, into Gévelot SA. A merger auditor has been appointed by the Clerk of the Commercial Court of Nanterre on March 8. This merger should be operational next June after approval by the competent decision-making bodies of both entities. The global economic context, impacted by the geopolitical and inflationary risks of the last few months, remains worrying. However, our solid financial structure and the effects of our ongoing business development strategy and cost control should enable us to continue to improve our profitability after a year of consolidation.
