  2. Worth exploringSale

    Prepare and maximise the sale value

    Estimated impact : €1,054,697 (value)

  3. Worth exploringFinancing

    Available borrowing capacity to invest

    Over 7 years at 4,5 %, the company can raise about 185 250 € within banking norms (annuity ≤ 70% of CAF, net debt ≤ 3.5× EBITDA).
