The analysis was made on the basis of the data of the Information and Analytical system Globas.
Net assets is an indicator, reflecting the real value of company's property, is calculated annually as the difference between assets on the enterprise balance and its debt obligations.

The largest company in terms of net assets amount is AO ROSNEFTEGAZ. In 2018 net assets of the company amounted to more than 3454 billion RUB.
LLC CORPORATE MANAGEMENT COMPANY CONCERN TRACTOR PLANTS had the smallest amount of net assets in the TOP-1000 group. Insufficiency of property of the company in 2018 as expressed in negative value -109 billion RUB.
For a ten-year period average amount of net assets of TOP-1000 companies has increasing tendency (Picture 1).
Share of companies with insufficiency of property in the TOP-1000 demonstrate increasing tendency (Picture 2).
Sales revenue
The revenue volume of 10 leaders of the industry made 87% of the total revenue of TOP-1000 companies in 2017 (Picture 3). It demonstrates high level of monopolization in the industry.
In general, over a ten-year period an increasing tendency in revenue volume is observed (Picture 4).

Over the ten-year period the average indicators of the current liquidity ratio in general were within the range of recommended values – from 1,0 up to 2,0 with increasing tendency (Picture 7).
The current liquidity ratio (the relation of the amount of current assets to short-term liabilities) shows the sufficiency of company’s funds for repayment of its short-term liabilities.
Average values of the indicators of the return on investment ratio have increasing tendency for ten years (Picture 8).
The ratio is calculated as the relation of net profit to the sum of own capital and long-term liabilities and demonstrates the return on the equity involved in the commercial activity of own capital and the long-term borrowed funds of an organization.
Asset turnover ratio is calculated as the relation of sales revenue to the average value of total assets for a period and characterizes the efficiency of use of all available resources, regardless of the sources of their attraction. The ratio shows how many times a year a complete cycle of production and circulation is made, yielding profit.
This business activity ratio showed a tendency to decrease for a ten-year period (Picture 9).

Information agency Credinform presents ranking of the largest Russian holding management companies. Enterprises with the largest volume of annual revenue (TOP-10), engaged in management of holding companies, financial industrial groups and management consultancy, were selected for the analysis, according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (for 2015-2017). Then they were ranked by decrease in current liquidity ratio (Table 1). The analysis was made on the basis of the data of the Information and Analytical system Globas.
The current liquidity ratio(х) is calculated as the relation of the sum of working assets to short-term liabilities.
Recommenmded value is from 1,0 to 2,0. Value of the indicator less than 1,0 demonstrates that short-term liabilities exceed current working assets. Therefore, lower limit of the interval reveals need to provide sufficiency of working assets for complete payment of short-term liabilities. Otherwise, it may cause bankruptcy of an enterprise. However, significant increase of short-term assets over liabilities can demonstrate impairment of capital structure and irrational investments of funds.
The experts of the Information agency Credinform, taking into account the actual situation both in the economy as a whole and in 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 holding management companies practical value of the current liquidity ratio amounted from 0,71 to 5,17 in 2017.
For getting of the most comprehensive and fair picture of the financial standing of an enterprise it is necessary to pay attention to all combination of indicators and financial ratios.
