28 financial ratios from the latest filing, each graded against companies in the same 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.
Shows how strongly fixed costs weigh on the gross result — a high ratio means fixed costs take only a small bite out of the earnings from basic operations.
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.
Net profit as a percentage of equity — the return the owners earned on their invested capital this year.
Profit relative to net assets (total assets minus total debt) — the ability to generate earnings from the net asset base alone.
Current assets relative to short-term debt — the ability to settle short-term obligations with current assets alone. Around 150% is considered satisfactory from a credit perspective.
Current assets excluding inventory relative to short-term debt — whether the most liquid assets alone can cover the short-term obligations. A value of 1 or above signals a healthy liquidity position.
Cash relative to short-term debt — the ability to repay short-term obligations with cash alone.
Fixed assets relative to long-term capital (equity plus long-term liabilities). Below 100% means the long-term capital finances more than just the fixed assets — a healthier liquidity position.
Cash flow relative to profit — the ability to convert reported profits into accessible cash.
Current assets relative to equity — an indicator of the balance-sheet structure and of the company's short- and long-term financing. The healthy level is highly industry-dependent.
Equity as a share of total assets — the ability to absorb losses. Around 40% is considered satisfactory from a credit perspective.
Total debt relative to the balance-sheet total — the share of the assets financed by debt rather than equity.
Profit relative to debt — the ability to create earnings while operating with debt.
EBITDA relative to debt — how much operating earnings are available to service the debt.
The ability to pay the interest on the company's debt out of its earnings.
Financial expenses relative to total liabilities — the effective interest rate the company pays on its debt.
The return on assets minus the interest rate on debt. Positive means the company benefits from operating with debt; negative means the debt makes it worse off.
Debt relative to equity — the company's leverage. A higher value means heavier reliance on debt financing.
Total liabilities relative to equity — whether the company operates primarily on borrowed capital or on its own.
Total equity relative to the capital the owners contributed — how the equity has developed from its starting point.
The size of this year's increase or decrease in the company's debt.
Revenue relative to total assets — the ability to generate revenue from the asset base.
Revenue relative to inventory — how many times a year the inventory is sold and replaced. A low value can indicate weak sales or excess inventory.
The size of this year's increase or decrease in the company's equity.
