Enterprise+ tier Compares the company's key figures with its industry (Statistics Sweden's industry key figures, *branschnyckeltal*), fiscal year by fiscal year. For each year and key figure you get the company's value, the industry's lower quartile, median and upper quartile, and where the company falls among them. `years` sets how many fiscal years are returned, newest first (1-10, default 5). With an API key, names (`name`, `group.sniName`) are in Swedish. ## Key figures The company's figures are calculated from its annual report with Statistics Sweden's definitions and closing balances, so they are comparable with the industry's quartiles. They can differ from the key figures in the [annual report financials](/api-lens/companies/get-full-annual-report-financials), which follow other definitions. | `keyFigure` | `unit` | Calculated as | | - | - | - | | `EquityRatio` | `percent` | Adjusted equity / total assets | | `ReturnOnEquity` | `percent` | Net result / adjusted equity | | `ReturnOnAssets` | `percent` | (Operating result + financial income) / total assets | | `OperatingMargin` | `percent` | Operating result / net sales | | `NetMargin` | `percent` | Net result / net sales | | `QuickRatio` | `percent` | (Current assets - inventories) / current liabilities | | `DebtEquityRatio` | `times` | (Provisions + long-term and current liabilities + deferred tax on untaxed reserves) / adjusted equity | | `NetSalesPerEmployee` | `thousandSek` | Net sales / number of employees | * Adjusted equity is equity plus untaxed reserves after corporate tax. Net result is the result after financial items, after corporate tax. * `value` is null when the annual report lacks an item or a denominator is zero or negative. * `higherIsBetter` is false only for `DebtEquityRatio`, where a lower value is stronger. ## Position and group * `position` is `BelowLowerQuartile`, `LowerQuartileToMedian`, `MedianToUpperQuartile` or `AboveUpperQuartile`. It is null when the company has no value or the industry has no figure. * `group` (per key figure) describes the companies compared with: * the SNI version and code; * the size class by employees (`minEmployees` and `maxEmployees`; both null means all sizes, and `maxEmployees` null means at least `minEmployees`); * the year and the number of companies. * The code is the company's main industry code when the fiscal year ended. A figure the industry key figures do not have for the 5-digit code is compared with its 4, 3 or 2-digit group, so `sniDigits` can differ between key figures. The size class is the narrowest one holding the year's `employees`, otherwise all sizes. ## Years * A fiscal year is compared with the industry figures for the calendar year it ended in (`scbYear`). * A fiscal year newer than the latest published year (`latestScbYear`) is compared with that latest year, and `scbYearIsFiscalYear` is false. * The industry figures describe companies with net sales. A year without net sales has `comparable` false: its figures are returned, without positions. * `covered` is false, with `notCoveredReason`, for legal forms without industry key figures, such as sole traders and partnerships. ## OpenAPI ````yaml get /companies/{id}/industry-comparison openapi: 3.1.1 info: title: TIC Lens API description: "The TIC Lens API provides programmatic access to company, person, property, vehicle, and order data.\r\n\r\n## Authentication\r\n\r\nAll requests require an API key passed via the `x-api-key` header:\r\n\r\n```bash\r\ncurl -H \"x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY\" https://lens-api.tic.io/companies/123\r\n```\r\n\r\nAPI keys are managed through the TIC Lens web application under **Settings → API Keys**.\r\n\r\n## Base URL\r\n\r\n| Environment | URL |\r\n|-------------|-----|\r\n| Production | `https://lens-api.tic.io` |\r\n\r\n## Feature Access\r\n\r\nEndpoints are gated by your subscription plan.
