To determine a World Class Company, we focus on one measure, Profitable Growth. This is a composite of two measures that matter most regarding share-price performance: Profitability and growth relative to global sector peers.
The YoY growth looks at a company’s performance/profit year after year or period after period. It compares the performance/profit and looks at how well the company is doing.
The return on assets focuses on how profitable a company is in relation to its total assets. The ratio is always presented in the form of a percentage.
