I. DEFINITIONS Net Profit Margin (NPM) NPM of a firm is simply the percentage of net income (NI) from total operating revenue (TOR). This indicates, after subtracting tax, how much profit the firm has generated. For example, if IKEA accumulates, over a single period, total sales revenue of $100M, but recapitalizes part of that income (about $50M), and needs to pay tax of 40% of the earnings, it will end up with a free cash flow of $30M. NPM is simply $30M / $100M x 100%, which equals 30%.
