Table explanation

This table provides information on turnover developments. Turnover development is represented as the percentage of businesses which have generated a higher, the same or a lower turnover than in the same period one year previously. The figures are subdivided in sectors/branches according to the Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities 2008 (SIC 2008) and in size classes based on the number of persons employed.

Data available from: 2012.

Status of the figures:
Figures from the fourth quarter of 2021 are provisional, the others are final.

Changes as of February 27, 2026:
Figures of the fourth quarter of 2025 have been added.

When will new figures be published?
New results are published approximately sixty calendar days after the end of the reporting period (quarter). Figures for the entire year will follow during the second quarter after the end of the reporting year. After publication of final results, CBS only adjusts the results if major adjustments and/or corrections are necessary.
