Free business statistics and financial ratios
The Net Profit Risk tables to compare the relative percentages of profitable and loss businesses in specific industries, as well as the percentage of gross receipts reported by profitable and non-profitable firms. We use sole proprietorship data for this measure since, in that legal reporting format, net income is most commonly equal to owner’s compensation (less depreciation). This Net Profit Risk measure is good information for those considering a startup operation in a specific industry, but the Net Profit Risk metrics presented at BizStats are not the same as a failure rate, which measures the percentage of businesses that actually fail over a specified time period. 
For actual industry failure rate measures,BizMiner Pro offers local and national industry failure rates for 16,000 industry, small business and startup segments in 300 US markets. BizMiner’s Business Risk Index compendium displays failure rates for over one thousand industries (including small business and startup detail). |
