Bringing up the rear are the regions of the North West (+3.3%).<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the individual regions, Lazio enjoyed the most sustained growth (+18.2%), whereas Piedmont, at the other end of the spectrum, recorded negative growth (-17.6%).<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the EBITDA figures produced some surprises. Overall, the figure was down (-9.8%), but the study revealed marked differences between different areas; indeed, while the central Italian regions recorded a considerable increase (+28.4%) and the North East a 17.9% growth, the regions in the North West of the country and those in the South and islands recorded shrinking results of -14.9% and -6.9% respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Grouping the companies by turnover, those in the 10-30 million euro bracket recorded the greatest growth (+5.1%), followed by those with turnovers of more than 30 million euros (+4.7%), and then those with turnovers of less than 10 million euros (+1.8%).<\/p>\n<h3>\u2026which means a reduction both in profits and in the number of companies recording profits<\/h3>\n<p>With regard to profits, the cumulative figure for 2017 was 72,264,000 euros, which represents a considerable drop (-52.0%) compared with the 150,430,000 euros recorded in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Analysing mean profits by region, Lombardy tops the list with profits of 1,746,000 euros, while Piedmont recorded mean losses of 4,916,000 euros.<\/p>\n<p>Profits expressed as a percentage of sales amounted to 0.9% in 2017, a sharp reduction compared with the 2.0% recorded in 2016, and also down on the 2015 figure of 1.3%.<\/p>\n<p>In 2017 a total of 146 companies closed the year in profit, three fewer than the 149 companies in the same position in 2016.<\/p>\n<h3>Poorer profitability indicators<\/h3>\n<p>By aggregating the financial statements of companies that together generated over 50% of the revenues in this sector you obtain the overall figure of the sector, from which to calculate the average reference values against which to compare individual companies\u2019 performances.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The average ROE in 2017 was -0.2%, a considerable drop compared to the +2.3% recorded in 2016.<\/li>\n<li>The average ROI was 1.6%, down on the 2016 figure of 4.3%.<\/li>\n<li>The ROS was 0.4%, as opposed to 1.1% in 2016.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The average EBITDA with respect to turnover, or gross operating margin, showed a similar trend, dropping from 3.4% in 2016 to 2.8% in 2017.<\/p>\n<p>The year in question, 2017, saw a worsening of financial risk, with debt ratio, or leverage, starting to increase again, to reach 3.9 as opposed to the value of 3.6 recorded in 2016.
