How Do I Calculate ROE?

The

formula for return on equity

is:

Return on Equity = Net Profit ÷ Shareholders’ Equity

Or for Alicon Castalloy:

18% = 498.77 ÷ ₹2.8b (Based on the trailing twelve months to December 2018.)

Most readers would understand what net profit is, but it’s worth explaining the concept of shareholders’ equity. It is the capital paid in by shareholders, plus any retained earnings. Shareholders’ equity can be calculated by subtracting the total liabilities of the company from the total assets of the company.

What Does ROE Mean?

Return on Equity measures a company’s profitability against the profit it has kept for the business (plus any capital injections). The ‘return’ is the yearly profit. That means that the higher the ROE, the more profitable the company is. So, all else equal,

investors should like a high ROE

. Clearly, then, one can use ROE to compare different companies.

Does Alicon Castalloy Have A Good Return On Equity?

One simple way to determine if a company has a good return on equity is to compare it to the average for its industry.

How Does Debt Impact Return On Equity?

Virtually all companies need money to invest in the business, to grow profits. That cash can come from issuing shares, retained earnings, or debt. In the case of the first and second options, the ROE will reflect this use of cash, for growth. In the latter case, the debt used for growth will improve returns, but won’t affect the total equity. That will make the ROE look better than if no debt was used.

Alicon Castalloy’s Debt And Its 18% ROE

It’s worth noting the significant use of debt by Alicon Castalloy, leading to its debt to equity ratio of 1.03. while its ROE is respectable, it is worth keeping in mind that there is usually a limit to how much debt a company can use. Debt increases risk and reduces options for the company in the future, so you generally want to see some good returns from using it.

In Summary

Return on equity is a useful indicator of the ability of a business to generate profits and return them to shareholders. Companies that can achieve high returns on equity without too much debt are generally of good quality. All else being equal, a higher ROE is better.
