What is ROE (Return on Equity)?
Formula: (Net Income / Shareholders' Equity) × 100
Measures a company's profitability in relation to stockholders' equity. Key metric for investors and financial analysts. For example, a company with $1 million in net income and $10 million in shareholder equity has a 10% ROE. Used by investors to compare companies within the same industry.
ROE performance is influenced by profit margins, asset turnover, and financial leverage. Industry conditions, management efficiency, and capital structure decisions impact overall ROE levels.
Improve ROE through operational efficiency, profit margin enhancement, and optimal capital structure. Focus on revenue growth, cost management, and effective use of shareholder equity.
Good ROE ratios vary by industry, but generally 15-20% is considered strong. Compare ROE to industry averages and consider company growth stage when evaluating performance.
