Profit of software developers

Information agency Credinform represents a ranking of the largest Russian software developers. Software developers and companies rendering consultancy services in this business area (TOP-10) with the largest annual revenue were selected for the ranking, according to the latest accounting periods in the Statistical Register (2017 – 2019). Then they were ranked by the net profit ratio (Table 1). The analysis was based on the data from the Information and Analytical system Globas.

Net profit ratio (%) is a relation of net profit (loss) to sales revenue. It is an indicator of the level of sales revenue.

There is no standard value for this ratio. It is recommended to compare companies of the same industry, or change in the ratio of the specific company. Negative value of the ratio is indicative of the net loss, and the high one means the efficiency of the company.

For the most complete and objective view of the financial condition of the enterprise, it is necessary to pay attention to the complex of indicators and financial ratios of the company.
