It indicates the percentage of sales revenue that exceeds the COGS, reflecting the efficiency of a company in managing its production costs relative to its sales.
Operating Margin

It indicates how much profit a company makes from its operations before deducting interest and taxes, reflecting its operational efficiency and pricing strategy.
Return on Equity (ROE)
Return on Equity (ROE) is a financial metric that measures the profitability of a company in generating earnings from its shareholders' equity. It indicates how effectively the management is using the company’s assets to create profits and is a key indicator of financial performance and efficiency.
Return on Net Assets (RONA)
Return on Net Assets (RONA) is a financial performance metric that measures how efficiently a company uses its net assets to generate profit. It indicates the profitability and operational efficiency of a business by comparing its net income to its net assets. A higher RONA value signifies better asset utilisation and profitability.
