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)Average
Around the average of companies in the same industry
Net profit as a percentage of total assets — the return generated on the capital employed.
Return on net assets (RONA)Average

Basic earning power (BEP)Average
Around the average of companies in the same industry
EBIT relative to total assets — the company's earning power before the effects of tax and financial leverage.

Around the average of companies in the same industry
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.
Liquidity
Current ratioStrong
Among the 30% highest rated companies in the industry
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.
Quick ratioVery strong

Fixed assets to long-term capitalStrong
Among the 40% highest rated companies in the industry
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.

Income to debtAverage
Around the average of companies in the same industry

The ability to pay the interest on the company's debt out of its earnings.

Among the 40% highest rated companies in the industry
Financial expenses relative to total liabilities — the effective interest rate the company pays on its debt.
