Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

OBJECTIVE:

To understand the information contained in financial statements with a view to


know the strength or weaknesses of the firm and to make forecast about the future
prospects of the firm and thereby enabling the financial analyst to take different
decisions regarding the operations of the firm.

RATIO ANALYSIS:

Fundamental Analysis has a very broad scope. One aspect looks at the

6
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

general (qualitative) factors of a company. The other side considers tangible and
measurable factors (quantitative). This means crunching and analyzing numbers
from the financial statements. If used in conjunction with other methods, quantitative
analysis can produce excellent results.

Ratio analysis isn't just comparing different numbers from the balance sheet,
income statement, and cash flow statement. It's comparing the number against
previous years, other companies, the industry, or even the economy in general.
Ratios look at the relationships between individual values and relate them to how a
company has performed in the past, and might perform in the future.

MEANING OF RATIO:
A ratio is one figure express in terms of another figure. It is a mathematical yardstick
that measures the relationship two figures, which are related to each other and mutually
interdependent. Ratio is express by dividing one figure by the other related figure. Thus a
ratio is an expression relating one number to another. It is simply the quotient of two
numbers. It can be expressed as a fraction or as a decimal or as a pure ratio or in absolute
figures as “so many times”. As accounting ratio is an expression relating two figures or
accounts or two sets of account heads or group contain in the financial statements.

MEANING OF RATIO ANALYSIS:


Ratio analysis is the method or process by which the relationship of items or
group of items in the financial statement are computed, determined and presented.
Ratio analysis is an attempt to derive quantitative measure or guides concerning the
financial health and profitability of business enterprises. Ratio analysis can be used both in
trend and static analysis. There are several ratios at the disposal of an annalist but their
group of ratio he would prefer depends on the purpose and the objective of analysis.

While a detailed explanation of ratio analysis is beyond the scope of this section, we
will focus on a technique, which is easy to use. It can provide you with a valuable
investment analysis tool.

7
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

This technique is called cross-sectional analysis. Cross-sectional analysis


compares financial ratios of several companies from the same industry. Ratio
analysis can provide valuable information about a company's financial health. A
financial ratio measures a company's performance in a specific area. For example,
you could use a ratio of a company's debt to its equity to measure a company's
leverage. By comparing the leverage ratios of two companies, you can determine
which company uses greater debt in the conduct of its business. A company whose
leverage ratio is higher than a competitor's has more debt per equity. You can use
this information to make a judgment as to which company is a better investment risk.

However, you must be careful not to place too much importance on one ratio. You
obtain a better indication of the direction in which a company is moving when several
ratios are taken as a group.

OBJECTIVE OF RATIOS
Ratio is work out to analyze the following aspects of business organization-

A Solvency-
1 Long term
2 Short term
3 Immediate
B Stability
C Profitability
D Operational efficiency
E Credit standing
F Structural analysis
G Effective utilization of resources
H Leverage or external financing

FORMS OF RATIO:

Since a ratio is a mathematical relationship between to or more variables /


accounting figures, such relationship can be expressed in different ways as follows –

A] As a pure ratio:

8
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

For example the equity share capital of a company is Rs. 20,00,000 & the
preference share capital is Rs. 5,00,000, the ratio of equity share capital to
preference share capital is 20,00,000: 5,00,000 or simply 4:1.

B] As a rate of times:

In the above case the equity share capital may also be described as 4 times
that of preference share capital. Similarly, the cash sales of a firm are

Rs. 12,00,000 & credit sales are Rs. 30,00,000. so the ratio of credit sales to cash
sales can be described as 2.5 [30,00,000/12,00,000] or simply by saying that the
credit sales are 2.5 times that of cash sales.

C] As a percentage:

In such a case, one item may be expressed as a percentage of some other


item. For example, net sales of the firm are Rs.50,00,000 & the amount of the gross
profit is Rs. 10,00,000, then the gross profit may be described as 20% of sales
[ 10,00,000/50,00,000]

STEPS IN RATIO ANALYSIS

The ratio analysis requires two steps as follows:

1] Calculation of ratio

2] Comparing the ratio with some predetermined standards. The standard ratio may
be the past ratio of the same firm or industry’s average ratio or a projected ratio or
the ratio of the most successful firm in the industry. In interpreting the ratio of a
particular firm, the analyst cannot reach any fruitful conclusion unless the calculated
ratio is compared with some predetermined standard. The importance of a correct
standard is oblivious as the conclusion is going to be based on the standard itself.

Parties interested in Ratio Analysis


Ratio analysis serves the purpose of various parties interested in financial
statements. Primarily the objective of ratio analysis and interpreting the financial

9
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

statements is to get adequate information useful for the performance of various


functions like planning, coordinating, controlling, communication and forecasting etc.

The interested parties may be:

Share holders/Investors:
Investor in the company will like to access the financial position of company where
he is going to invest. The first concern would be the security of the investment and
then the return on the investment in the form of interest and dividends. So, Investors
concentrate on the firm’s financial structure to the extent that influences the firm’s
earning ability and risk.

Trade creditors:
They are interested in firm’s ability to meet its claims over a short period of time. So
their analysis is usually confined to evaluation of firm’s liquidity position.

The long term creditors:


They are concerned with firm’s long term future solvency and survival. They analyze
the firm’s profitability over a period of time, its ability to generate cash, ability to pay
interest, repay the principle and relationship between various sources of funds.

Employees:
Employees are interested in financial position the concern especially profitability.
Their wages and amount of fringe benefits are related to the volume of profits
earned by the concern. The employees make use of the information available in the
financial statements.

Government:
Government is interested to know the overall financial health of the company.
Various financial statements published by the industrial units are used to calculate
the ratios for determining short-term, long-term and overall financial position of the
firm. Government may base its future policies on the basis of industrial information
available from various units.

Management:
Management of the firm requires these statements for its own evaluation and
decision making. Moreover, it is responsible for the overall performances of the firm
maintaining its solvency so as to be able to meets short-term and long-term
obligations to the creditors and at the same time ensuring an adequate rate of

return, consistent with safety of funds of its owner. Financial analysis may not
provide exact answer to the questions but it will be an indication of forthcoming
future.

1- Operational & Financial Ratios

(a) Earnings Per Share (Rs)


Meaning:

Earnings per Share are calculated to find out overall profitability of the organization.
Earnings per Share represent earning of the company whether or not dividends are
declared. If there is only one class of shares, the earning per share are determined
by dividing net profit by the number of equity shares.
EPS measures the profits available to the equity shareholders on each share held.

11
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

Formula:
NPAT

Earnings per share =


Number of equity share

The higher EPS will attract more investors to acquire shares in the company as it
indicates that the business is more profitable enough to pay the dividends in time.
But remember not all profit earned is going to be distributed as dividends the
company also retains some profits for the business.
For Infosys the variance of EPS ratio for 5 years is -

income or spending).
To calculate the average tax rate on an income tax, divide total tax liability by taxable
income:
• Let a be the average tax rate.
• Let t be the tax liability.
Let i be the taxable income.

(c)Pre Tax Margin:

Net Earnings + Income Tax


Pre tax Margin =
Net Sales

Explanation of Pre tax Margin:

The Pre tax Margin measures how well a company can generate before-tax profits at
the current level of sales.

Importance of Pretax Margin:

As with any margin, a high or increasing Pretax Margin is usually a positive sign,
showing the company is able to keep its operations costs low, while being able to
pull in strong earnings. The Pretax Margin varies greatly between industries, so you
will have to compare the results for the company you are analyzing to industry
averages.

(d)PAT Margin rate :

The after tax profit margin ratio tells you the profit per sales dollar after all expenses
are deducted from sales. In other words, the after tax profit margin ratio shows you
the percentage of net sales that remains after deducting the cost of goods sold and
all other expenses including income tax expense. The calculation is: Net Income
after Tax /Net Sales.

The profit margin ratio is most useful when it is compared to 1) the same company’s
profit margin ratios from earlier accounting periods, 2) the same company’s targeted
or planned profit margin ratio for the current accounting period, and 3) the profit
margin ratios of other companies in the same industry during the same accounting
period.

3- Performance Ratios
(a) ROA ratio :
The return on assets (ROA) percentage shows how profitable a company's assets
are in generating revenue.
ROA can be computed as:

This number tells you what the company can do with what it has, i.e. how many
dollars of earnings they derive from each dollar of assets they control. Its a useful
number for comparing competing companies in the same industry. The number will
vary widely across different industries. Return on assets gives an indication of the
capital intensity of the company, which will depend on the industry; companies that
require large initial investments will generally have lower return on assets.

(f)Working Capital/Sales(x)
The Working Capital Productivity Ratio helps explain how well the company is using
its working capital. Historically this has been a useful guide to investors or
stakeholders seeking to assess a company’s ability to manage cash. Any measure
of cash management is important to understand since a business needs cash to
operate, this is the oxygen that businesses need to live. This ratio is purported to
have been established by the US management consultant George Stalk while
working in Japan. The ratio gives a possible indication of the relationship between
financial performance and process improvement.
The Working Capital Productivity ratio can be defined as:

Revenue
Working Capital Productivity Ratio =
(Current Assets – Current Liabilities)

"earnings multiple," or simply "multiple") is a measure of the price paid for a share
relative to the annual net income or profit earned by the firm per share.[2] It is a
financial ratio used for valuation: a higher P/E ratio means that investors are paying

(g) Yield Ratio


The return on an investment. This refers to the interest or dividends received from a
security and are usually expressed annually as a percentage based on the
investment's cost, its current market value or its face value.

It is a comparison of the expected yield of one bond to the expected yield of another.
A yield ratio is important when deciding whether to invest in one bond or another;
generally, the one with the higher yield wins out. However, it is important to take into
account the after tax basis when taking the yield ratio of a corporate bond and a tax-
exempt municipal bond. A corporate bond yields less than its stated interest rate
because of taxation, whereas a tax-exempt municipal bond does not. Thus, a
municipal bond paying a lower interest rate will often net the bondholder more than a
corporate bond with a slightly higher interest rate, depending upon one's tax bracket.

(h) EV/Net Sales(x)

A valuation measure that compares the enterprise value of a company to the


company's sales. EV/sales gives investors an idea of how much it costs to buy the
company's sales. This measure is an expansion of the price-to-sales valuation,
which uses market capitalization instead of enterprise value. EV/sales is seen as
more accurate because market capitalization does not take into account as well as
enterprise value the amount of debt a company has, which needs to be paid back at
some point

Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

EBITDA is essentially Net Income with interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization
added back to it. EBITDA can be used to analyze and compare profitability between
companies and industries because it eliminates the effects of financing and
accounting decisions. However, this is a non-GAAP measure that allows a greater
amount of discretion as to what is (and is not) included in the calculation. This
also means that companies often change the items included in their
EBITDA calculation from one reporting period to the next.

When a company is valued using EBITDA - it is known as a EBITDA Valuation.

Financial Statements Ratio Analysis

Analysis of Financial Ratios:

1- Sales amount increase by 19% but Cost of sales increase by 22% (bcoz
salaries paid to software development employees increase by 26% ). This
has resulted in a less proportionate increase by in Gross profit (15%).
2- Sales increase by 19% but debtors increase by significant 35%.
It is due to the increase in Debtors collection period from 64 to 72 days i.e.
debtors are given more credit period. This has resulted in decrease of
Debtors turnover ratio.

3- As it is a Service oriented company , it does not have any stock kept with it.
So there is no amount blocked in stock.So the investment required in working
capital is less.
4- Gross Profit Amount increase by approx 15% and Operating Net profit
amount increase by approx 18 %.This means that Operating activities of
Infosys is more efficient as compared to Software development
activities(production activities).
5- But if we see ,ultimately its Operating net profit ratio has still decrease from
32.13 to 31.72.This is due to a significant increase in Cost of sales by 22%.
6- Therefore we analyze that its Cost of sales has so much material affect that it
is reducing both GP Ratio & operating profit ratio.
7- As we will see further there is a healthy % increase in Net profit amount by
approx 18% (as compared to Gross Profit Amount by approx 15% ).
This improvement in its performance is majorly due to improvement in Extra-
ordinary items like interest received on deposits from banks (increase by
257 % ).
8- Funds available with the company has increases by approx 21% . In 2007-08
company has not issued any new equity or debt .Therefore the company has
raised its funds only through its Reserves & Surplus which is approx 21%.
9- Now the company has employed these funds in following ways:
1) Acquired new fixed assets . This has resulted in more depreciation charged
to profits in P & L a/c.This has ultimately decreases the Operating profit ratio.
2) used to finance the working capital requirements.
3) has also made some new Investments in the current year(increases by
15 )
10-There is a decreases in Fixed assets turnover ratio. At first look it may
appears that the company has utilized its Fixed assets less
efficiently.However it has acquired New Fixed assets worth Rs 1050 crores
in the year 2007-08 which may help the company in Future growth.
11-Company has no Debt and Preference capital which means that there is no
Capital Gearing ratio,no Debt-Equity ratio and no Interest Coverage ratio.
