Trend over the years

2019 to 2024, 5 financial years 2018 to 2024, 6 financial years

The operating result for 2019 is a loss of €809. 2019 is the only financial year with this figure.

Operating result-€809 2019 Net result-€89 2021

Turnover is what the company sold, the result is what was left of it. A loss stands below the zero line.

Use the arrow keys on the chart for the figures per year.

The sector band is the middle half of the companies in Wholesale trade (NACE 46). A quarter of them sit below it, a quarter above. Each year counts only accounts in the same format, and only where there are at least 30. The dashed line is the median. There is a sector band for net result, equity, total assets, working capital, solvency, current ratio and return on assets (ROA).
