2 Full-time equivalent

2024 revenues, which are recognised on a percentage-of-completion basis in accordance with costs incurred up to the balance sheet date, amounted to €1.9 million (versus €3.0 million in 2023),. Revenues were boosted by the major large-capacity contracts signed in 2022 and 2023, particularly in the Caribbean (Saint Kitts and Nevis) and Africa (Cape Verde, Morocco). Small-capacity contracts signed in 2023 and 2024 (mainly in Morocco, Tunisia, Polynesia and France) also had an impact on revenues.

Gross margin amounted to negative 1.3 M€ compared to positive 1.2 M€ in 2023 mainly due to the ongoing contract in Mauritania, as a result of the greater-than-expected use of direct subcontracting during the installation phase of the two desalination units.

Adjusted EBITDA amounted to a €5.3 million loss, compared to a €1.9 million loss in 2023, impacted by the fall in the gross margin and the rise in operating expenses related to the increase in headcount and production capacity.

Having raised funds through its IPO in July 2023, Osmosun has embarked on an investment programme, particularly in human resources, to meet growing market demand and prepare for accelerated future growth. However, the economic climate has curtailed the implementation of the large projects currently under advanced negotiations, while the small-capacity projects signed are not sufficient to cover the new cost structure.

Personnel costs rose accordingly by 22% year on year to €2.3 million. The average headcount increased by 14% to 32 FTE2 in 2024 compared to 28 FTE in 2023.

Adjusted operating income/(loss) amounted to a €6.1 million loss (compared to a €2.7 million loss in 2023).

Net income/(loss) for the year amounted to a €6.3 million loss compared to a €3.1 million loss in 2023.

Operating free cash flow3 came to a €5.0 million outflow (compared to a €2.8 million outflow in 2023), including operating funding needs (€4.9 million outflow) and limited investments (€0.1 million outflow).

Shareholders' equity amounted to €1.2 million at 31 December 2024. Group cash and cash equivalents amounted to €1.6 million, compared to €7.2 million at 31 December 2023, while gross borrowings stood at €1.8 million including €0.8 million due in less than one year, resulting in net debt of €0.2 million.

As announced in the press release dated 20 March 2025, OSMOSUN estimates that it has a cash horizon until July 2025 and is exploring all solutions for extending this horizon. The Group has notably initiated discussions with industrial players with a view to seeking potential backing. OSMOSUN will keep the market informed of progress with these discussions.

A €0.7 million order backlog

At 31 December 2024, the order backlog (signed contracts) stood at €0.7 million, compared to €2.6 million at 31 December 2023, mainly because no new major projects were signed in 2024. Since the end of the financial year, OSMOSUN has signed new orders worth €0.5 million, including three projects won by the subsidiary OSMOSUN Maroc, which began operating in January.

Change in governance

Mr. Julien Cauvy joined OSMOSUN on March 1, 2025, as Deputy Chief Executive Officer of the Group. Mr. Cauvy brings solid experience in the water treatment sector, having served for nearly 15 years as Managing Director of Prominent France, a company specializing in dosing components and systems, as well as water treatment solutions.

At its meeting on May 6, 2025, the Board of Directors of OSMOSUN co-opted Mr. Julien Cauvy as a Director, replacing Ms. Dorothée Chabredier. This co-optation will be submitted for ratification at the Shareholders' General Meeting on June 23, 2025.

OSMOSUN® Chairman and CEO Maxime Haudebourg said: "2024 was a particularly challenging year for OSMOSUN. We had previously made significant investments to put ourselves in a position to take on major projects. However, these projects failed to materialise, thereby weakening the Group's financial situation. The refocus on our core business, namely the desalination of seawater or brackish water powered by renewable energies using a standardised modular range of small-tomedium capacity equipment, is already underway, as witnessed in particular by the projects signed in Morocco. The ball is now rolling and we need to adapt our organisational structure and teams accordingly. It is also crucial to obtain new funding to sustain our business."
