Both "company performance" and "company's performance" can be correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. Here's a breakdown:
"Company performance": This phrase is a compound noun where "company" functions as an adjective describing the type of performance being referred to. It is commonly used in business contexts to discuss how well a company is doing overall. For example, "The company performance has been strong this quarter."
"Company's performance": In this case, "company's" is a possessive form indicating that the performance belongs to the company. This form is used when you want to specifically highlight that the performance being discussed belongs to a particular company. For example, "The company's performance in the last fiscal year exceeded expectations."
In general, the choice between "company performance" and "company's performance" depends on the context and the emphasis you want to convey. If you are talking about the performance of companies in general or discussing performance as a concept, "company performance" is more appropriate. If you are specifically referring to the performance of a particular company, then "company's performance" would be the better choice.
------------------------------------------------------------------
it's a matter of emphasis: they both mean basically the same thing.
-- Company perfomance emphasizes the company aspect. "Company performance lagged last year, with profits down 40%." -- company's performance (derived from performance of the company) emphasizes the performance aspect. "The performance of the company [The company's performance] was poor compared to the relatively great morale experienced across all portions of the company." There's so little difference between the two, it's primarily a matter of style: what sounds best.
