Return on Equity ROE Calculator

Tool Introduction

The Return on Equity (ROE) Calculator is an online tool designed for investors and financial analysts, capable of quickly and accurately calculating a company's return on equity. By entering the company's net income after tax and shareholders' equity, this tool can immediately provide you with key financial performance indicators, helping you evaluate the company's profitability and capital operation efficiency.

What is ROE?

Return on Equity (ROE) is an important financial indicator that measures a company's profitability, reflecting the efficiency with which the company uses shareholders' funds to generate profits. In short, ROE shows how much net profit a company generates for every 1 yuan of shareholders' equity. Its basic calculation formula is:

ROE = (Net Income After Tax / Shareholders' Equity) × 100%

A higher ROE usually means that the company can better utilize its shareholders' investments to generate returns, which is a positive signal for investors. However, when analyzing ROE, it is also necessary to consider factors such as industry characteristics and the company's debt level.
