Returns
ROA — Return on Assets
Net income divided by total assets.
Definition
ROA measures how much profit the company generates per dollar of total assets on its balance sheet, regardless of how those assets are funded.
Formula
(Net Income ÷ Total Assets) × 100
Why it matters
ROA cannot be inflated by leverage the way ROE can, making it useful for comparing companies with different capital structures. For banks, ROA is the cleanest cross-bank profitability comparison.
