Business Survival:
There are two key factors for business survival:
• Profitability
• Solvency
• Profitability is important if the business is to
generate revenue (income) in excess of the
expenses incurred in operating that business.
• The solvency of a business is important
because it looks at the ability of the business in
meeting its financial obligations.
Financial Statement Analysis
• Financial Statement Analysis will help business
owners and other interested people to analyse
the data in financial statements to provide them
with better information about such key factors for
decision making and ultimate business survival.

collective
Analysis is the
and
name for the tools
techniques that are intended to provide
relevant information to the decision
makers. The purpose of the FSA is to
assess the financial health and
performance of the company.
• FSA consist of the comparisons for the
same company over the period of time and
comparisions of different companies either
in the same industry or in different
industries.

organisation’s
•
•
– Financial performance
– Financial position
– Prediction of future performance
To have a means of comparative analysis across time
in terms of:
– Intracompany basis (within the company itself)
– Intercompany basis (between companies)
– Industry Averages (against that particular industry’s averages)
To apply analytical tools and techniques to financial
statements to obtain useful information to aid decision
making.
Financial Statement Analysis
Financial statement analysis involves analysing the
information provided in the financial statements to:
– Provide information about the organisation’s:
• Past performance
• Present condition
• Future performance
– Assess the organisation’s:
• Earnings in terms of power, persistence, quality
and growth
• Solvency

Effective Financial Statement Analysis
• To perform an effective financial statement
analysis, you need to be aware of the
organisation’s:
– business strategy
– objectives
– annual report and other documents like articles about
the organisation in newspapers and business reviews.
These are called individual organisational factors.
Effective Financial Statement Analysis
Requires that you:
• Understand the nature of the industry in which
the organisation works. This is an industry
factor.

• Understand that the overall state
economy may also have an impact
performance of the organisation.
→ Financial statement analysis is more than just
“crunching numbers”; it involves obtaining a
broader picture of the organisation in order to
evaluate appropriately how that organisation is
performing

Tools of Financial Statement Analysis:
The commonly used tools for financial statement
analysis are:
• Financial Ratio Analysis
• Comparative financial statements analysis:
– Horizontal analysis/Trend analysis
– Vertical analysis/Common size analysis/ Component
Percentages
Financial Ratio Analysis
• Financial ratio analysis involves calculating and analysing
ratios that use data from one, two or more financial
statements.
• Ratio analysis also expresses relationships between
different financial statements.
• Financial Ratios can be classified into 5 main categories:
– Profitability Ratios
– Liquidity or Short-Term Solvency ratios
– Asset Management or Activity Ratios
– Financial Structure or Capitalisation Ratios
– Market Test Ratios
Profitability Ratios
3 elements of the profitability analysis:
• Analysing on sales and trading margin
– focus on gross profit
• Analysing on the control of expenses
– focus on net profit
• Assessing the return on assets and return
on equity
Profitability Ratios
•
•
Gross Profit % = Gross Profit * 100
Net Sales
Net Profit % = Net Profit after tax * 100
Net Sales
Or in some cases, firms use the net profit before tax figure. Firms
have no control over tax expense as they would have over other
expenses.
 Net Profit % = Net Profit before tax *100
Net Sales
• Return on Assets = Net Profit * 100
Average Total Assets
• Return on Equity = Net Profit *100
Average Total Equity
Liquidity or Short-Term Solvency ratios
Short-term funds management
• Working capital management is important as it signals the firm’s ability
to meet short term debt obligations.
For example: Current ratio
• The ideal benchmark for the current ratio is $2:$1 where there are two
dollars of current assets (CA) to cover $1 of current liabilities (CL).
The acceptable benchmark is $1: $1 but a ratio below $1CA:$1CL
represents liquidity riskiness as there is insufficient current assets to
cover $1 of current liabilities.
Liquidity or Short-Term Solvency ratios
• Working Capital = Current assets – Current Liabilities
• Current Ratio = Current Assets
Current Liabilities
• Quick Ratio = Current Assets – Inventory – Prepayments
Current Liabilities – Bank Overdraft
© Mary L
Asset Management or Activity Ratios
• Efficiency of asset usage
– How well assets are used to generate revenues
(income) will impact on the overall profitability of the
business.
For example: Asset Turnover
• This ratio represents the efficiency of asset
usage to generate sales revenue
Asset Management or Activity Ratios
• Asset Turnover = Net Sales
Average Total Assets
• Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold
Average Ending Inventory
• Average Collection Period = Average accounts Receivable
Average daily net credit sales*
* Average daily net credit sales = net credit sales / 365
© Mary Low
Financial Structure or Capitalisation Ratios
Long term funds management
• Measures the riskiness of business in terms of debt
gearing.
For example: Debt/Equity
• This ratio measures the relationship between debt and
equity. A ratio of 1 indicates that debt and equity funding
are equal (i.e. there is $1 of debt to $1 of equity) whereas
a ratio of 1.5 indicates that there is higher debt gearing in
the business (i.e. there is $1.5 of debt to $1 of equity).
This higher debt gearing is usually interpreted as bringing
in more financial risk for the business particularly if the
business has profitability or cash flow problems.
© Mary Low
Financial Structure or Capitalisation Ratios
• Debt/Equity ratio = Debt / Equity
• Debt/Total Assets ratio = Debt *100
Total Assets
• Equity ratio = Equity *100
Total Assets
• Times Interest Earned = Earnings before Interest and Tax
Interest
© Mary Low
Market Test Ratios
• Based on the share market's perception of the
company.
For example: Price/Earnings ratio
• The higher the ratio, the higher the perceived
quality of the earnings by the share market.
© Mary Low
Market Test Ratios
• Earnings per share = Net Profit after tax
Number of issued ordinary shares
• Dividends per share = Dividends
Number of issued ordinary shares
• Dividend payout ratio = Dividends per share *100
Earnings per share
• Price Earnings ratio = Market price per share
Earnings per share
© Mary Low
Horizontal analysis/Trend analysis
• Trend percentage
• Line-by-line item analysis
• Items are expressed as a percentage of a
base year
• This is a time series analysis
• For example, a line item could look at
increase in sales turnover over a period of
5 years to identify what the growth in sales
is over this period.
© Mary Low
Vertical analysis/Common size analysis/
Component Percentages
• All items are expressed as a percentage of a
common base item within a financial statement
• e.g. Financial Performance – sales is the base
• e.g. Financial Position – total assets is the base
• Important analysis for comparative purposes
– Over time and
– For different sized enterprises
© Mary Low
Limitations of Financial Statement Analysis
• We must
analysis.
– Strong
be careful with financial statement
financial statement analysis does not
necessarily mean that the organisation has a strong
financial future.
– Financial statement analysis might look good but there
may be other factors that can cause an organisation to
collapse.
