A company's revenues are the total amount of money the company has brought in before expenses. This is a good way to tell if a company is growing or not.
A company's net income is the amount of profit they've made after subtracting expenses from revenues.
A company's profit margin (%) is the percentage of profit as compared with revenues. A profit margin of 3% means the company made a profit of $3 for every $100 in revenues.
Also known as EBIDTA, it's an approximate measure of a company's operating cash flow and is calculated by looking at earnings before the deduction of interest expenses, taxes, depreciation, and amortization.
The operating margin is a measure of operating efficiency at a company. It is a percentage calculated by dividing EBITDA (Operating Income) by revenues and then multiplying by 100.
Total debt is simply the total amount of money that the company has borrowed. Naturally the lower the debt the better for any given company.
A company's total assets are everything of value that is owned by a person or company - including things like trucks, real estate, tools, and office equipment.
The debt to asset ratio is a percentage found by diving the total debt by the total assets. This is a critical measure of how much money a company has borrowed compared with the amount of assets they have. The lower the better.
Operating cash flow is the inflows and outflows of cash from the normal sales operations of a business. This is basically a measure of whether or not a company will have cash to operate its business with.
