Note from the editor

 
In today's newsletter, our fourth KPI column installment takes a deeper look at return on invested capital, or ROIC. Because of ROIC's nature as a long-term metric, amid this uncertain economy, many CFOs should consider treating ROIC as a vital KPI.

According to Jack McCullough, president of the CFO Leadership Council, ROIC can be a valuable long-term investment tool, unlike EBITDA, which only looks at the short-term.

We want to hear from you; if you track ROIC, how do you define it? How does it materially impact your decision-making? And where does it address what EBITDA leaves unanswered?

You can find our full KPI series here. Was this newsletter forwarded to you? Sign up here.
