Gulkevichi is a small town in the Krasnodar region. It is separated from Krasnodar by 160 km. It got its name from the family that many years ago owned these lands, faithfully served the king. The head of the Gulkevichi family worked in court and was awarded orders many times. After the end of the Kazan War, Emperor Alexander II decided to reward his loyal subject with 3 thousand acres of land. It is noteworthy that the emperor’s subject had never been to the Krasnodar region before. He rented out the lands he received as a gift to tenants, and he lived in St. Petersburg.
In 1864, the Rostov-Vladikavkaz railway was built in the Krasnodar region. The station, which was located on lands owned by Gulkevich, received the name of the surname of the owner of this territory. Later, these places were inhabited, and a settlement arose, which received the status of a city. The provincial town of Gulkevichi appeared in 1961. As of 2022, 34 thousand people live here. Moreover, this figure does not change much, either up or down; there are fluctuations, but they are insignificant. The territory of the city is crossed by the Samoilova River, its length is approximately 38 km. It resembles a chain of lakes, in some places it looks like a stream, and in others it spreads widely. The river has numerous quiet backwaters where locals enjoy fishing.

About the analysis method
Above is a comparative analysis of the financial position and performance of the organization. The official accounting statements of organizations of the Russian Federation for 2022, presented in the Federal Tax Service database (2 million organizations), were taken as a basis for comparison. The comparison is made using 9 key financial ratios (see table above). A comparison of an organization's financial ratios is made with the median value of indicators of all organizations in the Russian Federation and organizations within the industry, as well as with quartiles of these values. Depending on whether each value falls into the quartile, a score from -2 to +2 is assigned (-2 – 1st quartile, -1 – 2nd quartile, +1 – 3rd quartile; +2 – 4th quartile; 0 – the value deviates from the median by no more than 5% of the difference between the median and the quartile in which the indicator value falls). To form a conclusion based on the analysis results, the scores are summarized with equal weight for each indicator, resulting in a score from -2 to +2:
much better (+1 - +2on) |
better (from 0.11 to +1on) |
roughly equivalent (from -0.11on to +0.11on) |
worse (from -1on to -0.11) |
much worse (from -2on to -1) |
The year-over-year change is calculated by comparing the overall industry financial health score for the current year with the score for the previous year. The result of the comparison could be as follows:
significantly improved (a positive change of more than 1 point). |
improved (positive change less than 1 point); |
did not change (the score did not change or changed slightly, no more than 0.11); |
worsened (deterioration over the year by less than 1 point); |
significantly worsened (deterioration over the year by more than 1 point); |
