Financial health of companies in certain region is the foundation on which the prosperity of region is based. If companies in region are healthy and successful, there are good reasons to believe that all social problems can be solved relatively easy.

The main purpose of this paper is to describe, apply and provide critical review the existing information technologies based possibilities for Latvian companies’ financial health evaluation. We focus on the set of financial ratios necessary for economic health evaluation and homepages parsing based methods for these ratios determination for Latvian companies.
