Information agency Credinform represents a ranking of hotels in Russia. The hotel industry enterprises (TOP-10 and TOP-1000) with the largest annual revenue were selected for the ranking, according to the data from the Statistical Register and Federal Tax Service for the latest available accounting periods (2018 – 2020). Then they were ranked by return on investment ratio (ROI ratio) (Table 1). The selection and analysis were based on the data from the Information and Analytical system Globas.

Return on investment (%) is the ratio of net profit (loss) and net assets value. It demonstrates the return level from each ruble, received from the investments. In other words, it shows how many monetary units the company used to obtain one monetary unit of net profit.

The ratio is used for the assessment of fund raising at a certain interest.

In order to get the most comprehensive and fair picture of the financial standing of an enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to all the combination of financial indicators and company’s ratios.
