When looking for connections between particular business’s activities, theory of financial management uses pyramidal system of indicators. The effectiveness of this tool is based on the appropriate choice of the top indicator. Its decomposition enables to manage firm’s processes from the bottommost organizational levels to the main firm’s mission with respect to the connections between par­ti­cu­lar processes. The aim of this paper was to identify appropriate indicator, which corresponds with creation of firm’s value and design its decomposition. To measure creation of firm’s value it is nowadays very popular to use indicator Economic Value Added (EVA). Though from the theoretical point of view EVA is seen as a superior performance metric, the results of some empirical studies do not support this claim. That is why the information content of EVA was controlled in the concrete conditions of Czech Economy within this article. The results showed eligibility of using EVA in Czech firms and enabled to choose it as the top indicator in the pyramidal system. Ambition of further research is to design a complex of indicators offering a comprehensive economic view on the firm’s per­for­man­ce.

The topic of this paper is motivated by the increasing popularity of Economic Value Added (EVA) and by the need to make the managing process of Czech agribusiness firms more efficient. Through adoption of EVA principle, the proponents of EVA argue, that EVA will lead to increased efficiency in the management and allocation of all assets and hence increased shareholder value. Though from the theoretical point of view EVA is seen as a superior performance metric, the results of the most empirical studies do not support this claim. One of the standard argument against EVA superiority results from the statistical survey of the relationship between EVA and traditional performance measures. Despite of the results of the most empirical studies this paper assumes (with regard to the specifics of Czech food processing sector) a difference in information content of EVA and traditional performance metrics. The intent of this article is to provide a simple regression test of the hypothesis that between EVA and traditional performance metrics is not tight linear dependency, which would point out that EVA has the same information content as traditional performance measures. The regression results indicate in all cases a positive correspondence between EVA and financial performance metrics with very low dependency of EVA on the financial metrics, which supports the examined hypothesis.
