The essence of the financial analysis is the effort to continually evaluate the financial situation of the company. Mentioned authors noted that taking into account the specifics of each of the three rates of return involved in the model, this pattern of factorial analysis provides the opportunity to highlight the factors, which exert a positive or negative influence on ROE. In Slovakia, it is possible to obtain from the CRIBIS database the average values of the financial ratios that can be used to assess the financial situation of the company using, for example, graphic analysis (Jenčová et al, 2016). Taking into account the SK NACE 26 (Manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products) classification, in 2014, based on the mentioned database, the financial indicators of Slovak electrical engineering industry enterprises reached average value of return on equity (ROE) equal to 6.57%, upper quartile was 35.24%, and lower quartile was -10.67%. According to the standardized variable method, this company occupied 19th place within the electrical engineering industry in Slovakia
