PortNet Profit Margin — What Is It?
The portion of revenue that remains with the company as net profit.
Explanation
Net profit divided by revenue. It shows how much of every dollar of sales actually remains after all expenses, taxes, and interest are paid.
Margins are read over time and in comparison to the industry. Rising revenues with shrinking margins mean that growth is being bought with discounts or rising costs — and this is usually more interesting information than sales dynamics alone.
In addition to net profit margin, gross profit margin (after cost of goods sold) and operating margin (after operating expenses, before interest and taxes) are also reported. The latter best describes the business itself, as it is independent of the financing structure.
Example
Revenue 1,000 million PLN, net profit 80 million PLN. Net profit margin is 8%.
