MEASURES

Enterprises (number)

Enterprises are registered legal or natural persons in market non-financial activities (sections B to J, L to N and S95 by the Standard Classification of Activities 2008 – SKD 2008) which had turnover or personnel cost and were therefore active during at least a part of the reference period.

Net turnover (1000 EUR)

Net turnover is the total amount that the enterprise settled with sale of goods, material and performed services in the reference year.

For activities K65.1, K65.2 and K65.3 turnover equals the gross premiums written.

Value added (1000 EUR)

Value added is calculated as gross income from operating activities after adjusting for operating subsidies and indirect taxes. Value added is calculated gross because value adjustments (such as depreciation) are not subtracted. Data on subsidies, grants, allowances, compensation and other revenue related to business performance are also taken into account. In 2020 and 2021, the COVID-19 crisis had a major impact on business operations. In accordance with accounting standards, enterprises also include salary compensation and crisis allowance among these subsidies, and this should be taken into account when comparing data on a year-on-year basis.
