The ROI is a ratio that determines whether a company is profitable or not. Specifically, the ratio looks at the company’s capital and compares that to their revenue to see if they are generating profits. You can calculate the ROI by dividing the net operating profit by the employed capital, which is calculated by subtracting current liabilities from total assets. This ratio is generally measured over 5 years.

Cervus currently has a 5-year average ROI of 0.123768.

Finally, we can take a look at the ROA. The ROA indicates how profitable a company actually is, by weighing its profits against its total assets.
