2011 PT Distributor Performance Report Reveals Differences
Among High-Profit and Typical Firms
Chicago, Ill. – July 7, 2011 – The annual
Power Transmission (PT) Distributor Performance Report,
recently released by the Power Transmission Distributors Association,
offers key operational, financial and productivity ratios for use in
benchmarking company performance to that of typical and high-profit
firms within the power transmission/motion control (PT/MC) industry.
The 2011 PT Distributor Performance Report, which was
compiled confidentially by Profit Planning Group of Boulder, Colo., from
data provided by participating PTDA distributor member companies,
examines distributor performance trends in several categories including
return on investment (ROI), income statement and balance sheet line
items and examines financial ratios, asset productivity ratios, growth
and cash sufficiency ratios and employee productivity ratios. A
five-year trend analysis for selected key ratios helps identify
historical performance in order to consider their impact for the
future.
The report is designed for distributors seeking information to
benchmark their company’s performance against that of the
industry. Manufacturers looking to obtain insight into the operational
and business needs of their distributors will also find the report to be
extremely insightful.
