Research and Markets: This New Business Ratio Report Focuses On the Leading 90 Companies Operating As Computer Equipment Distributors

(M2 PressWIRE Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge)
RDATE:12072007

Dublin - Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c62208) has announced the
addition of Computer Equipment Distributors - Business Ratio Report to
their offering

This Business Ratio Report compares the financial performance of the
leading players in this Industry sector, offering a quick and
cost-effective competitor analysis tool for senior management.

Ratios are an invaluable tool for comparing the performance of
companies on a like-for-like basis. Using ratios, the relative
profitability, growth or debt levels, for example, of differently sized
companies can be directly measured or compared with ease. This Business
Ratio Report focuses on the performance of key players in the Computer
Equipment Distributors sector. Having closely analysed the sector, our
editors and analysts have compiled the largest companies, so you don't
have to. A Business Ratio report is, in effect, a complete financial
reference for the sector.

A business ratio report can be used to assess trading and financial
information on:

The Company:

-Size

-Structure

-Performance

The Industry:

-Structure

-Major companies

-Performance

What you can look for when reading your Business Ratio Report:

- Trends The results given in a Business Ratio report generally cover
at least the previous three full accounting years, therefore any
fluctuations in any area can be easily pinpointed

- Benchmarks The average results for each ratio together with the
industry profile of the average company in the sector can both be used
as benchmarks to compare individual company performance.

- Size All the major companies in the sector are ranked on the basis of
sales, profits, total assets and employee numbers (PERFORMANCE LEAGUE
TABLES - Section 4). The largest and smallest of the key players can be
easily identified, while the relative size of any company can be
assessed.

- Growth The average annual growth of each company's sales, profits,
total assets and number of employees over the three-year period being
analysed is calculated and ranked (Performance League Tables - Section
4). This key information highlights strong and weak performers, which
companies are expanding or losing market share, increasing or
decreasing asset investment, or taking on or shedding employees. The
industry results are also given for comparison purposes.

This information is perfect for all kinds of planning and
decision-making including:

- Competitor Analysis The depth of financial analysis provided on each
company in each report offers you a comprehensive insight into the
performance of individual businesses over recent years. The performance
ratios let you easily identify the financial strengths and weaknesses
of competitors in terms of profitability, liquidity, gearing,
efficiency and employee performance

- Simple Benchmarking A Business Ratio Report is ideal for benchmarking
your own company's performance. You can choose to benchmark your
company against a major competitor, or assess the overall industry
average performance. And you can focus on the criteria that are
important to your business, such as profitability, employee performance
or sales growth. Setting realistic performance targets becomes easier
for you; with Business Ratio Reports, you will know that they are based
on solid facts about your industry.

- Tracking Performance Trends With at least three years of financial
data for each company and the entire industry you can identify
performance trends instantly.

- Identifying Acquisition Targets Business Ratio Reports make it simple
for you to identify potential acquisitions. You can easily find
companies fitting your criteria using the Performance League Tables.

A Business Ratio Report takes the hard work out of financial
performance analysis. You are left free to focus on using the vital
information it imparts to drive your business forward.

This Business Ratio report focuses on the leading 90 companies
operating as Computer Equipment Distributors.

The report analyses company and industry performance over the three
years up to 7th August 2006. During this period, the average company
has seen sales increase by 14.7 percent, from GBP13.7 million in
2003/04 to GBP15.7 million in 2005/06. Pre-tax profits declined over
the same period to reach GBP319,000 in the final year of analysis. A
rise in sales and a decline in profits could suggest increasing price
competition in the industry, or possibly a rising cost of sales.
Employee numbers increased by 32 to stand at 305 in 2005/06.
