D&B Key Business Ratios

Requires Internet Explorer 6.*+ or Netscape 6.2+.

The D&B Key Business Ratios cover all critical areas of business performance -- solvency, efficiency, and profitability -- of public and private companies, broken down by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code.

Industry norms and business ratios are a staple part of any company or industry analysis because they measure the relationship between financial values in a company's balance sheet and income statement. This resource will allow users to determine prevailing median values of more than a dozen corporate performance measures in hundreds of industry sectors, depending on the asset size of the organization.
