Profitability Ratio

Profitability ratios are a class of financial metrics that are used to assess a business's
ability to generate earnings compared to its expenses and other relevant costs incurred
during a specific period of time. For most of these ratios, having a higher value relative to a
competitor's ratio or relative to the same ratio from a previous period indicates that the
company is doing well.

The profit percentage of assets varies by industry, but in general, the higher the ROA the
better. For this reason it is often more effective to compare a company's ROA to that of
other companies in the same industry or against its own ROA figures from previous periods.
Falling ROA is almost always a problem, but investors and analysts should bear in mind that
the ROA does not account for outstanding liabilities and may indicate a higher profit level
than actually derived. In 2015-2016, ROA of BBC suffered a fall by 1,09% . That presented
the lower earnings its asset generated . However, in 2017, ROA increased up to 9,01 which
means BBC more effectively used it asset in working process

stockholders’/shareholders’ equity which reflects the accumulation over time of amounts
received by the company from stock/share issues plus the profits/earnings retained by the

that a company is increasing its ability to generated profit. It also indicates how well a
company's management is deploying the shareholders' capital. In other words, the higher
the ROE the better. From 2015-2016, due to lower net income, ROE and ROA of BBC
dropped that caused dissatisfaction for shareholders. In 2017ROA moved upward to 12,38%
that illustrated higher return on money that was gained from shareholders’ investment.
