Assessment of the financial stability and profitability of logistics companies through the application of financial indicators

Sažetak

The aim of this study was to analyze the financial efficiency and stability of company A and company B during the period from 2020 to 2024. Using the EMS model and BEX index, key indicators of profitability, liquidity, and asset turnover were assessed. Results show that company B achieved higher ROA (6.1-10.3%) and ROE (7.7 - 16.1%), with stable liquidity and reduced leverage, whereas company A recorded lower results and greater dependence on external financing. The analysis also indicates high long-term sustainability for company B and moderate financial risk for company A. The study highlights the need for cost optimization, strengthening of capital structure, and continued monitoring of liquidity and profitability in the logistics sector. These findings provide practical guidance for strategic management and growth planning in logistics companies.
