Financial Ratio Analysis
A Liquidity Ratioprovides information on a company's ability to meet its short−term,
immediate obligations.
A Profitability Ratioprovides information on the amount of income from each dollar
ofsales.
An Activity Ratiorelates information on a company's ability to manage its resources
(that is, its assets) efficiently.
A Financial Leverage Ratioprovides information on the degree of a company's
fixedfinancing obligations and its ability to satisfy these financing obligations.
A Market Ratio describes the company's financial condition in terms of amounts
pershare of stock.
Liquidity Ratio

5. Itc have high liquidity ratios, the higher the margin of safety that the company possess to
meet its current liabilities. Liquidity ratios greater than 1 indicate that the company is in good
financial health and it is less likely fall into financial difficulties. Seen in all the years above
2013, 2012, 2011.
Current ratio indicates Itc's ability to meet short-term debt obligations. The current ratio
measures whether or not a firm has enough resources to pay its debts over the next 12 month.
Profitability Ratio
An increase in profit margin compared to the previous period's margin signals an
improvement in both operational efficiency and profitability means the company improved its
profits and efficiency. A margin higher than those of other companies or higher than the
industry average means Itc business performed better than those companies during that
period.
Activity Ratio

6. A high debtor turnover ratio implies either that the company operates on a cash basis or that
its extension of credit and collection of accounts receivable are efficient. Also, a high ratio
reflects a short lapse of time between sales and the collection of cash, while a low number
means collection takes longer.
A low inventory turnover ratio can be seen because of rescission but it is very well aligned
with FMCG industry average.
Leverage Ratio
A very high interest cover suggest that the company is not capitalizing on the relatively
cheaper source of finance (i.e. debt) and in such instances an increase in gearing ratio may
actually add value to the enterprise.
Interest coverage is an indication of the margin of safety it does not run the risk of nonpayment of interest cost which could potentially threaten its solvency.
Market Ratio

7. PE Ratios

Generally, stocks that are expected to grow earnings will have a higher P/E, Itc companies
with high growth have a higher ratio. Itc with the higher P/E is said to be overvalued by the
market.
The share price should reflect a firm’s future value creation potential, greater value creation
can indicate greater future dividends from the company. A higher P/E ratio should reflect
greater expected future gains because of perceived growth opportunities and/or some
competitive advantages and/or lesser risk, but at the same time it indicates that the share price
is relatively more expensive.
