This study analyzes and explains the various factors that affect the profitability of several companies in MENA Region in terms of return on assets (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and return on sales (ROES). The purpose of the study is to determine the impact of firm-specific factors on the profitability of firms in MENA Region, and to identify the most important factors that affect firm profitability. The study uses a cross-sectional analysis to analyze a total of 2331 observations. The data used in the study was collected from a data stream data database. The study uses a Pearson correlation and a multiple regression analysis to determine the factors that affect firms' profitability in MENA Region for 2007-2016.
The statistical analysis showed a positive correlation between independent variables (liquidity, growth opportunity, asset tangibility, firm size, Altman’s Z-score), and firms’ profitability.
The study suggests that in order to enhance the profitability of firms, it is important to focus on liquidity, growth opportunities, size, and Altman's Z-score.
