Performance last year

We want to ensure a company is making the most of what it has available. This is done by comparing the return (profit) to a company's available funds, assets and capital.

Whilst IRICO Group New Energy made outstanding use of shareholders’ funds last year (Return on Equity greater than 40%), this is metric is skewed due to its high level of debt.
IRICO Group New Energy used its assets less efficiently than the HK Electronic industry average last year based on Return on Assets.
IRICO Group New Energy has become profitable over the past 3 years. This is considered to be a significant improvement in its use of capital (Return on Capital Employed).

Has earnings increased in past 5 years? (1 check)
Has the earnings growth in the last year exceeded that of the Electronic industry? (1 check)
Is the recent earnings growth over the last year higher than the average annual growth over the past 5 years? (1 check)
Is the Return on Equity (ROE) higher than 20%? (1 check)
Is the Return on Assets (ROA) above industry average? (1 check)
Has the Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) increased from 3 years ago? (1 check)

The above checks will fail if the company has reported a loss in the most recent earnings report. Some checks require at least 3 or 5 years worth of data.
