Why?

The methodologist for this unique study is Philip Parker, Eli Lilly Chair Professor of Innovation, Business and Society at INSEAD (Fontainebleau, France and Singapore). According to Professor Parker, “With the globalization of markets, greater foreign competition, and the reduction of barriers to entry, it becomes all the more important to benchmark a company’s financial indicators on a worldwide basis. World stock markets have recently witnessed a return to fundamental financial analysis. ” The goal of the reports is to assist consultants, financial managers, strategic planners, and corporate officers in gauging certain indicators of Soja de Portugal Sociedade Gestora de Participacoes Sociais SA’s financial and human resource structure.

Professor Parker states, "We are intrigued by the wide variations in basic financial and productivity measures between Soja de Portugal Sociedade Gestora de Participacoes Sociais SA and other Grain Mill Products companies. The Earnings Before Interest And Taxes (EBIT), for example, varied from -1.76 to 25.1. We see this type of variation in the hundreds of ratios that we estimate.”
