Exlerová, Lenka ; Marek, Petr (advisor) ; Dufková, Eva (referee)
This thesis involves the financial analysis of spanish companies with an emphasis on their evaluation according to selected sectors and autonomous regions. For the purpose of the evaluation the indicators of profitability, turnover, liquidity and indebtedness are used. The autonomous regions are firstly evaluated from the point of view of the revenues of the individual sectors as part of the total turnover for the region. These practical parts are supplemented by the general but also economic characteristics of Spain. The conclusion reached following the evaluation of the individual indicators is that the most sucessful sectors are "DC -- Manufacture of leather and leather products", "DK -- Manufacture of machinery and equipment n.e.c." and "DL -- Manufacture of electrical and optical equipment". In contrast the sectors "A -- Agricultural, hunting and forestry" and "B -- Fishing" were the least sucessful. In addition it was found, that in general, the greatest share of the revenues of the autonomous regions were in the sectors "F -- Construction", "DA -- Manufacture of food products, beverages and tobacco" and "DJ -- Manufacture of basic metals and fabricated metal products". In contrast the sectors of "B --fishing" and "CA -- Mining and quarrying of energy producing materials" contribute the least in terms of revenues. The greatest absolute revenue values are achieved in the autonomous region of Madrid, followed by the regions of Cataluňa and País Vasco. In contrast the Extremadura region had the lowest revenues.
