PortROE — What Is It?
How much profit a company generates for every dollar of shareholder equity.
Explanation
Net income divided by shareholder equity. It answers the question of how effectively management uses owners' money.
High ROE can be a result of high debt, not efficiency — debt reduces equity in the denominator and inflates the ratio. Therefore, ROE should be read in conjunction with the level of debt.
Example
Net income of 90 million PLN with equity of 600 million PLN gives an ROE of 15%.
