Ranking

Profitability of operating profit before payment of taxes and interest (margin EBIT) of railway rolling stock manufacturers in the Russian Federation

Information agency Credinform has prepared ranking of railway rolling stock manufacturers in the Russian Federation. The ranking includes the largest enterprises and is based on revenue as stated in the Statistics register, with the reference period of 2011. Companies were ranged by descending profitability of operating profit before payment of taxes and interest on the credits (margin EBIT).

Margin EBIT (%) – the ratio of profit before tax and interest on borrowed funds to sales proceeds. The recommended value of margin EBIT should be at least positive number. However it doesn’t guarantee net profit – after accounting of interest to creditors, especially, if company has significant debts, there can be loss. The higher the ratio, the bigger the probability that company will show net profit. This ratio lets to compare companies not taking into account tax payments and the value of loan portfolio, thus the total efficiency of uses by organization its resources and productivity of company's financial management is estimated.

Diagram 1. Margin EBIT, revenue and solvency index GLOBAS-i® TOP-10 manufacturers of railway rolling stock in the Russian Federation

Total turnover of TOP-10 companies by the results of 2011 financial year is 241,48 bln. RUB. The average value of margin EBIT – 10,3%.

As we can see on diagram, two enterprises are notable by annual turnover: OJSC Research and PC Uralvagonzavod (manufactures tank cars, platform-cars, hopper cars) and ZAO Transmashholding (main and industrial locomotives, mainline and shunting locomotives, locomotive and marine diesel engines, freight and passenger cars, electric trains and subway cars), with the revenue 67 827 mln. RUB and 65 775 mln. RUB respectively. UralVagonZavod showed margin EBIT value more than in average 10 largest manufacturers of railway rolling stock in RF – 16%, Transmashholding less – 5,8%.

Besides OJSC Research and PC Uralvagonzavod, the highest value of margin EBIT have the following companies: JSC Metrovagonmash (19,9%) - produce cars for subways of Moscow, Saint-Petersburg, Baku, Tbilisi, Kharkov, Budapest, Prague and other Russian cities, near and far abroad; JSC Altaivagon (16,5%) – one of the largest Russian plants for production of rail freight rolling stock - tanks, platforms, etc.

However these companies and other enterprises from TOP-10 list fall into the highest and high value of independent solvency index GLOBAS-i® of Information agency Credinform. That speaks about ability of companies to meet debt obligations on time and in full. Risk of non-performance of debts is minimum or inconsiderable. Such situation can be explained by the high level of orders on railway rolling stock by JSC "RZD", urban subways, oil, coal and other companies from different industries at rather high depreciation percent of existing park.
