TOP-10 companies disposing precious metals

Information agency Credinform has prepared a ranking of the Russian enterprises processing scrap and waste of precious metals. Industry players (TOP-10) with the largest annual revenue were selected for the ranking, according to the data from the Statistical Register and the Federal Tax Service for the latest available accounting periods (2017 - 2019). Then the enterprises were ranked by the asset coverage ratio (Table 1). The analysis was based on the data from the Information and Analytical system Globas.

Asset coverage ratio (x) is calculated as the difference between equity and non-current assets to current assets.

The ratio characterizes the ability of a company to finance current activities only with its current assets. The recommended value of the ratio is > 0.1.

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 combination of financial indicators and ratios.
