Activity trends of the largest companies of the Rostov region

Information agency Credinform represents an overview of activity trends of the largest companies in the real sector of the economy of the Rostov region.

Enterprises with the largest volume of annual revenue of the Rostov region (TOP-10 and TOP-1000), were selected for the analysis, according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (2014 — 2016). The analysis was made on the basis of the data of the Information and Analytical system Globas.

Net assets are the indicator, reflecting the real value of company’s property. It is calculated annually as the difference between assets on the enterprise balance and its debt obligations. The indicator of net assets is considered negative (insufficiency of property), if company’s debt exceeds the value of its property.

The ratio shows how many times a year a complete cycle of production and circulation is made, yielding profit.
