Boost Your Investment Returns with the ROIC Formula - MarketXLS

What is Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)?

Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) is a profitability metric used to measure how effectively a company uses its invested capital to generate profits. To calculate ROIC, the after-tax operating income of a company is divided by its total invested capital. ROIC can be used to compare a company’s financial performance over time and to other firms in the same industry. A higher ROIC indicates more efficient use of capital, which can lead to better returns for investors.

Maximizing ROIC

To maximize ROIC, companies should focus on increasing their return factors while minimizing negative factors. To maximize return, companies should strive to increase operating margins and reduce the invested capital. Additionally, they should focus on driving sales growth while reducing their operating expenses. Companies should also aim to increase their net income and lower their cost of capital. Lastly, they should strive to leverage their assets responsibly in order to increase returns whilst minimizing any risks associated with the assets. By utilizing these strategies, companies can effectively maximize their ROIC and generate better returns for investors.
