Abstract

The subject of this article is the profitabil­ity of construction companies after the global economic crisis. Ten construction companies have been surveyed for the 2008-2015 period. For this purpose we analyze the changes of the following indicators: profitability based on the net amount of income from sales, on the basis of tangible fixed assets and assets, and on the basis of stockholders’ equity and li­abilities. The survey uses comparative analy­sis and statistical methods for research – time series and SPSS. The companies are set apart, based on the deterioration, preserva­tion and improvement of their profitability. The guidelines for increasing their profitability are outlined.
