In 2023, the company recognized two goodwill, one linked to the acquisition of Medical Devices Venture and the other to the purchase of Elexo by the subsidiary Logic Instrument. The stock remained stable in absolute value despite the 38% increase in turnover and the integration of Elexo. Customer accounts increased significantly, largely linked to the integration of Elexo at the end of 2023. Cash stood at €10.3 million compared to €12.1 million, the impact is mainly linked to disbursement in equity following the acquisition of Elexo. Borrowings increased by €4.4 million, including €2.6 million contracted for the purchase of Elexo by Logic Instrument and €1.6 million by Elexo in a Participatory Recovery Loan to support future growth.
Importants events

The group intends to continue to develop professional sales of mobile solutions for defense, industry and services but also to accelerate with Medical Devices Venture the deployment of its subsidiaries, Dextrain, Poladerme, Domisanté and MDV IT.
For the consumer electronics part, ARCHOS will unveil its new range of tablets in May 2024.
The company is also publishing today a press release concerning two capital increases aimed at repaying in advance the dilutive instruments in circulation as well as the balance of the company’s debt to the management trust established by the company on December 21, 2023, this which would make it possible to stop any further dilution in the short/medium term and to stabilize the company’s shareholding.
