The operating margin measure the percentage of revenues remaining after paying all operating expenses. It is calculated as the trailing 12 months operating Income divided by the trailing 12 months total revenue, multiplied by 100. Operating Income is defined as total operating expenses.
Net profit margin is also known as return on sales, this value is the income after taxes for the trailing twelve months divided by total revenue for the same period and is expressed as a percentage.
Gross margin value measures the percentage of revenue left after paying all direct production expenses. It is calculated as the trailing 12 months total revenue minus the trailing 12 months cost of goods sold divided by the trailing 12 months total revenue and multiplied by 100.
Across the bottom is presented a table with profitability ratios for the last 5 preceding accounting periods. Review of this information is essential for external sources such as lenders and investors.

The second financial calculation that we will review is the liquidity ratio. It measures the ability of Northrop Grumman to pay short-term debt and meet unexpected needs.
The current ratio is the ration of total current assets for the most recent interim period divided by total current liabilities for the same period.
The quick ratio, also known as the acid test ratio, is defined as total current assets minus total inventory for the most recent interim period divided by total current liabilities for the same period.
A higher liquidity ratio indicates that a company is more liquid and has better coverage of outstanding debts.
