Profitability Analyses

Which areas contribute to the net result of a company? How does the profitability differ for various products and markets? Which customers are generating profit? Our profitability analysis maps customers, products and markets from a profitability perspective. The profitability analysis can be used as a basis for operating control and well-grounded strategic decisions. The financial control in many companies is based on gross profit level.

This type of control does not show how big a part of indirect costs each order is consuming. A net profit control will give a more accurate and fair view of products, markets and customer distribution of indirect costs and contribution to the total net result of the company. Our profitability analysis is a complete mapping of your company’s real profitability. All costs of the business are allocated and calculated down to the lowest possible level: per customer and customer groups, product and product groups, markets and regions, per order, and per individual units. The basis of the analysis is derived by interviews with affected staff and careful analyses of the results.

This is the prerequisite for well-based decisions for future investments. The profitability analysis will show the areas that generate a net profit.  As a result, your company can use the analysis as a base to refine the business and focus on profitability. The knowledge of which areas are profitable will also provide an opportunity to compare with areas that are not having the same profitability. In this way, the entire business can be lifted to a higher total profitability.
