Financial Ratio Analysis

Financial ratios help stakeholders and potential investors to determine the sustainability and potential
profitability of an organization. Performing a ratio analysis on the financial statements provides

stakeholders and investors with insight of how the organization has performed. The ratios are an indicator

as to the financial health of the organization. Healthcare providers should track the operating margin,
