How this measure is worked out

Operating income × (1 − 21% tax) ÷ (debt + equity − cash) × 100

What the company earns on the money invested in it. Invested capital is what lenders and shareholders have put in, less the cash sitting idle. Tax is applied at a flat 21% so that companies with different tax positions stay comparable.

EBIT after tax over debt plus equity minus cash; 60% earns a 10

What this ranking is not

It is not advice, and a high place is not a recommendation. A company can lead on one measure and fail on every other; that is the reason this site scores five dimensions rather than one and lets you weigh them yourself.

It also ranks only what has been read. A company whose filings are not in this database cannot appear here however well it would have done, and a company whose filing does not tag this figure is absent rather than last.
