Equity
Assets minus liabilities — the part of the company that genuinely belongs to its owners.
Equity is made up of share capital, reserves, retained earnings from previous periods and the current year's result.
Negative equity means liabilities exceed assets. Slovenian company law requires the management to call a general meeting once losses reach half the share capital, and where equity falls below the statutory minimum the shareholders must decide on a capital increase, dissolution or another measure. It is one of the few things in a public report with a direct legal consequence.
In a profitable year equity grows by the net profit if nothing is distributed; in a loss-making year it shrinks.
Equity in figures
There is no ranking for this figure: it would come from annual reports, which AJPES sells and which are not open data in Slovenia.
