If we observe the change in the financial condition of the company over the past few years, they have significantly changed the following parameters: the ratios of equity and debt (borrowing of company had decreased, therefore the portion of the income spent on payments on current interest had significantly increased ); profitability (profit changes/increases in a slower pace than revenue of sales, the cost of the company&#39;s assets and shareholders&#39; equity); market performance (had changed for the better and now shows that the numerical value of dividends paid and their percentage increased significantly, so the payback period of the shares had decreased ) .&nbsp; &nbsp;</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Financial analysis of the oil company &quot;Rosneft&quot; revealed that the company is able to maintain with current payments, is effective in management of their assets and for investors is effective to invest in shares of the company. But &quot;Rosneft&quot; can service its debt weakly, as it has a lot of borrowed funds, besides the reliability of investments in shares of the company is low. In the dynamics the company has changed dramatically for the better: liquidity ratios had doubled; productivity and capital productivity of the company had changed/increased significantly; the company&#39;s dividend policy had changed, in which the percentage of dividend payments had tripled, and the carrying value of the shares had rose at four times.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Comparing these companies between themselves and their change in investment attractiveness, analyzing their shareholding structure and implementation scheme of its products, it can be concluded that in the short term the financial performance of&nbsp; &quot;Lukoil&quot; is more effectively. But in the long term it is more attractive &quot;Rosneft&quot; oil company, as it has several expensive and long-term agreements, diversifiable circuit sales of their products and state support.</p>
