Information agency Credinform has prepared a ranking of food industry enterprises in Novosibirsk. Companies engaged in manufacture of food products and beverages (TOP-10) in terms of annual revenue were selected according to the data from the Statistical Register and the Federal Tax Service for the available periods (2018 - 2020). Then the companies were ranged by asset coverage ratio (Table 1). The selection and analysis of companies were 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 the combination of financial indicators and company’s ratios.
