Gross marginAverage
Around the average of companies in the same industry
The gross result as a share of revenue — how much of the revenue is left after variable costs to cover the company's fixed costs.

EBIT as a share of revenue — the share of revenue remaining as earnings once all operating costs are covered. A key measure of earning power.

The profit for the year as a share of revenue — the company's ability to turn revenue into profit.
Return on equity (ROE)Average
Around the average of companies in the same industry
Net profit as a percentage of equity — the return the owners earned on their invested capital this year.
Return on assets (ROA)Strong
Among the 40% highest rated companies in the industry
Net profit as a percentage of total assets — the return generated on the capital employed.

EBIT relative to total assets — the company's earning power before the effects of tax and financial leverage.

Liquidity
Current ratioStrong
Among the 30% highest rated companies in the industry
