Ranking
Equity in fish processing

Information agency Credinform represents a ranking of the largest Russian enterprises engaged in processing and preserving fish and seafood. The companies with the largest volume of annual revenue (TOP-10) were selected for the ranking, according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (2015 - 2017). They were ranked by equity turnover ratio (Table 1). The analysis was based on the data of the Information and Analytical System Globas.

Equity turnover (times) is revenue to the annual average total equity. It reflects the efficiency of the company’s equity management.

The ratio indicates the rate of equity turnover. High value speaks about effective equity management, and the low one is indicative of some equity idleness.

The experts of the Information agency Credinform, taking into account the actual situation both in the economy as a whole and in the sectors, has developed and implemented in the Information and Analytical system Globas the calculation of practical values of financial ratios that can be recognized as normal for a particular industry. For fish processing companies, the practical value of equity turnover ratio is from 3,74 times in 2017.

For the most complete and objective view of the financial condition of the enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to the complex of indicators and financial ratios of the company.
