FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial Statement Analysis: It can be used as a very useful tool for understanding a firms performance and condition. Each financial statement contains a wealth of information which when analyzed and interpreted, can provide valuable insights into a firms performance and position.
Use of financial Analysis:
Assessing Corporate Excellence: There are nine parameters, on which companies are ranked, Increase in market capitalization over 12 months Increase in revenue over an accounting period Increase in profit after tax Return on net worth Compound annual growth rate Price earnings ratio Market capitalization Sales for the latest financial year Profit after tax for the latest financial year;
They collectively assess corporate excellence
Judging Creditworthiness: of the customer, by assigning points in the range of 0-15
Forecasting bankruptcy: To analyze the future of its operations and to assess whether they are profitable in the long run so as to prevent bankruptcy, if not then it could lead to shut down of the entire business.
Valuing Equity Shares: A technique of empirically relate price-earnings multiple to key financial variables.
Predicting Bonds Ratings: Financial Ratios are used for predicting bond ratings, hence, eacEstimating Market Risk
The purpose of vertical analysis is to be able to fulfill the basic uses of financial analysis. The absolute amounts dont have much use in comparing with other companies, as a large firm for one may not be large firm for the other.E.g For Company A, its Net Sales 1000 C.O.G.S 800This data is sufficient to calculate Gross Profit, however, to analyse Income statement for either the purpose of comparing with its previous years, it is important to have a common denominator, which in this case is Net sales. Hence below financial analysis is done taking Net sales into a common denominator i.e- conversion into 100.

Findings of vertical analysis:Though there has not been any minute changes in the Income Statement between the years, the major changes has been with regard to Impairment & contingencies is a positive change as impairment/expense has declined.Investments has declined could be due to inadequate funds available for investing, thus it is a negative for the Co. Similarly, decline in liabilities is favorable due to repayment of old creditors.

RATIO ANALYSIS PROFITABILITY RATIO LIQUIDITY RATIO EFFICIENCY RATIO CAPITAL STRUCTURE INVESTMENT RATIO
PROFITABILITY RATIOGROSS PROFIT RATIO: Gross profit ratio shows the efficiency of the firm. This ratio shows the percantage os gross profit over sales. As Gross profit is befor tax and expenses so as high this ratio goes it shows the strength of the comapny to pay off its expenses and taxes.GROSS PROFIT RATIO = (GROSS PROFIT/ SALES)* 100
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
17.58%17.20%
In our study the ratio has increased form 17.20% to 17.58% which shows that company's performance has improved.
NET PROFIT RATIO: The net profit margin ratio is the net profit as a proportion of sales. It shows the effectiveness of the business at converting the sales into profit. The higher the ratio the higher is the business performance.
NET PROFIT RATIO = (NET PROFIT/ SALES)* 100
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
12.67%12.24%
In this case the Net Profit Ratio of Nestle has increased fro 12.24% to 12.67% displaying that the business has been much more effective in the later year.RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED: The relationship between profitability and investment is considered the key ratio by many analysis. It provides a broad measure of managements operating and financial success. This ratio shows how well the capital is used to generate profit. Higher the ratio implies that high profits are earned by less capital invested in the business.RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED = (NET PROFIT BEFORE TAX/ CAPITAL EMPLOYED)* 100
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
160.29%163.97%
In this case the Return on Capital has decreased from 163.97% to 160.29% showing that the capital employed wasn't used effectively to generate returns in the later year.
LIQUIDITY RATIO
CURRENT RATIO: The ratio indicates the companys ability to meet its short term debt obligations. A higher ratio indicates that comapny has the ability to pay off its obligations in time but a lower ratio says that the company is not a position to pay of its debts. 2:1 is considered as an appropriate ratio for a company.CURRENT RATIO = CURRENT ASSETS / CURRENT LIABILITY
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
.60 TIMES.66 TIMES
In our case the ratio is approximately 6:10 which is near to 2:1 hence shows company is in a normal position to pay off its short term debts. QUICK RATIO: The acid test or quick ratio measures the ability of a company to use its near cash or quick assets to immediately extinguish its current liabilities. Quick assets include those current assets the presumely can be quickly converted to cash at close to their book value. Such items are cash, stock, investments, and accounts receivable.QUICK RATIO = LIQUID ASSETS / CURRENT LIABILITY
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
.24 TIMES.29 TIMES
The standard ratio is 1:1 but in our case the ratio comes out to be decreased from 0.29 to 0.24 showing that the company's ability to pay off its liabilities has decreased significantly which is not a good sign.
EFFICIENCY RATIO
DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO: Sundry debtors always hold more core part in the total current assets of the firm. This ratio helps the management to find out that in how many days average sales are locked up in the amount of debtors. The higher this ratio indicates that management is efficient enough to handle debtors or how liquid the debtors are.DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO = SALES / AVERAGE DEBTORS
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
93.68TIMES87.37TIMES
In this case the ratio has significantly increased from 87.37 to 93.68 times hence indicating that in the later year Nestle has been efficient enough to turn its debtors into liquid assets.AVERAGE COLLECTION PERIOD: The average collection period ratio represents the average number of days for which a firm has to wait before its debtors are converted into cash. The lesser the days the better it is for the company as the cash comes back early.AVERAGE COLLECTION PERIOD = 365/ DEBTOR TURNOVER RATIO
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
3.9 DAYS4.2 DAYS
In our case the period has decreased from 4.2 days to 3.9 days indicating that debtors are turning into cash faster as compared to the last financial year.
STOCK TURNOVER RATIO: Stock turnover ratio and inventory turnover ratio are the same. This ratio is a relationship between the cost of goods sold during a particular period of time and the cost of average inventory during a particular period. A higher ratio indicates that the investment in the stock jas been judicious enough to get enough sales.
STOCK TURNOVER RATIO = COST OF GOODS SOLD/ AVG INVENTORY
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
11.61TIMES11.39TIMES
In our case the ratio has increased from 11.39 to 11.61 times indicating that the investments in stock have been showing better results in the later year.
AVERAGE DAYS INVENTORY: The number of days inventory is also known as average inventory period and inventory holding period.A high number of days inventory indicates that their is a lack of demand for the product being sold.A low days inventory ratio (inventory holding period) may indicate that the company is not keeping enough stock on hand to meet demands.AVERAGE DAYS INVENTORY = 360/ STOCK TURNOVER RATIO
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
31DAYS31.6DAYS
In our case the days have gone down from 31.6 to 31 days implying that the company's stock holding has decreased.FIXED ASSET TURNOVER RATIO: A financial ratio of net sales to fixed assets. The fixed-asset turnover ratio measures a company's ability to generate net sales from fixed-asset investments - specifically property, plant and equipment. A higher fixed-asset turnover ratio shows that the company has been more effective in using the investment in fixed assets to generate revenues.
FIXED ASSET TURNOVER RATIO = SALES / FIXED ASSETS
Nestle (FY 2009)Nestle (FY 2008)
3.24 TIMES3.20 TIMES
