This article examines the main approaches and indicators used in the comprehensive evaluation of business performance. The study analyses key financial indicators—including profitability, return on investment, liquidity, and turnover ratios—alongside non-financial factors such as customer satisfaction, employee productivity, innovation level, and market share. The article considers the role of internal resources and external environmental factors in shaping business activity outcomes. Practical analytical instruments including SWOT analysis, KPI systems, and strategic planning tools are discussed with reference to their application in enterprise management. The study traces business development through the stages of the product life cycle—market entry, growth, maturity, and decline—demonstrating how performance assessment criteria and appropriate evaluation methods evolve at each stage. The article emphasises the importance of rational resource allocation, effective risk management, and the adoption of innovative approaches as prerequisites for sustainable enterprise development and long-term competitiveness. The findings indicate that a comprehensive, multi-criteria approach to performance evaluation—one that integrates financial, economic, and strategic dimensions—provides the most reliable basis for managerial decision-making and stable business development.
