The  absolute and the relative impacts of the analytical factors on the economic criterion of efficiency, were compared by using the methods of quantifying the influence of determining factors. In addition,  the development of company's indicators with indicators for the whole Slovak electrical engineering industry were compared. Company's data were obtained from the Register of Financial Statements of the Slovak Republic; data of the whole industry were obtained from the CRIBIS database. This case study provides information for the financial management of the analyzed company.
