Many companies have a high D&A in relation to the company's operating profit (EBITDA) and although this indicator does not have an effective cash effect, it ends up influencing the accounting net income, so analyzing this relationship can help to understand when D&A has a relevant impact to the company's results.
Shows the amount spent on investments in research and development in relation to the Net Revenue for the period. The company can use these investments to try to increase its revenue in the future.
Shows the amount spent on investments in Capex in relation to Net Revenue for the period. The company can use these investments to try to increase its revenue in the future.
