In Infos Synergee, Word from the expert

AGT, publisher of business intelligence solutions dedicated to retail networks, reinforces its Central Balance Sheet Module with the integration of TDFC bundles and Competitive Benchmarking.

Mende, March 11, 2014. For over 5 years, AGT has been providing its customers with the 870,00 tax returns produced by French companies.

On the one hand, the franchisor can automatically retrieve the network's financial data, consolidate it and analyze it through the main financial and management ratios. In concrete terms, he can benchmark his network using intelligent panels based on criteria such as location, concept and surface area. Thanks to scoring (AFDCC score) and a warning system, the group can anticipate the risk of failure within the network and take corrective action.

In addition, thanks to the AGT Retail platform, network members can compare themselves with their peers (comparable outlets) and simulate the impact of management actions (investments, stock rotation, DSO, etc.) on earnings and cash flow.

 New for 2014:

  • integration of e-transmitted bundles (TDFC) is automatic via the AGT RETAIL portal

Note that legislation has changed since January 1, 2014, with commercial companies subject to corporate income tax with sales in excess of €80,000 required to file tax data electronically. The accountant or a service provider commissioned by the company being able to transmit the declaratory and payment data for business taxes to the tax authorities.

With AGT Retail, there's no longer any need to wait for the publication of balance sheets with the Registrar's Office, so you can have them available from April 15. The publisher has enhanced its Central Balance Sheet module with an interface designed for members and their chartered accountants. The latter can directly upload tax returns via the AGT Retail solution.

Laurent Dubernais, AGT's CEO, explains: " This service is part of our drive to deliver ever greater value to our customers, and to reduce the time it takes to provide tax data by several months in an increasingly fast-paced economic environment.

  • Benchmarking Competition

It has become essential for networks to measure the performance of their outlets against the competition, based on criteria such as location, sector, sales and APE code.

Thanks to AGT Retail, retailers can now compare the progression of their sales, profit margins, profitability, cash flow and debt levels with those of their competitors, whatever the brand, and analyze their performance to better understand any discrepancies and learn from them.
