Summary/Abstract: Performance evaluation is crucial for assessing the adequacy of the current situation and identifying strengths and weaknesses. Financial performance analyses provide insights into the financial structure of companies and industries. In this study, a financial performance analysis of transportation and storage companies operating in Turkey was conducted using financial ratios derived from consolidated financial statements from 2009 to 2021, employing a multi-criteria decision-making method. The TOPSIS method was chosen as the multi-criteria decision-making method, and the criteria weights were determined using the entropy method. According to the findings of the research, the financial performance of the transportation and storage sector exhibited a fluctuating trend during the relevant period. The sector achieved its highest financial performance in 2009, while the least successful financial performance was observed in 2021.
