1. Financial Analysis CHAPTER 4

2. Overview of Financial Analysis FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS TO SPECIFY THE OBJECTIVES OF THE ANALYSIS REMEMBER -- THE IDENTITY OF THE USER HELPS DEFINE WHAT INFORMATION IS NEEDED

3. Potential Financial Statement Users: Creditors Investors Managers –What types of questions do each of these users seek answers to?

4. Creditors Why does the firm want/need to borrow funds? What is the firm’s capital structure? How leveraged are they? How will they pay it back? What kind of cash flows are being generated by operations?

5. Investors How has the firm performed/what are future expectations? How much RISK is inherent in the capital structure? What are the expected returns from the firm? What is firm’s competitive position?

6. Managers Need all info creditors and investors need PLUS: What operating areas have contributed to success and which have not? What are strengths/weaknesses of company’s financial position? What changes are indicated to improve future performance?

7. Caution!!! Keep in mind: management PREPARES financial statements Analyst should be alert to potential for management to influence reporting to make data more “appealing” May want to supplement analysis with information apart from Annual Report prepared by management

8. Where to look for data... Financial statements (and notes) Annual Report 10K and 10Q reports filed with SEC (EDGAR) Computerized data bases –Info on industry norms/ratios –Info on particular companies/industries/mutual funds Websites

9. Basic Tools Common size financial statements Financial ratios –Trend analysis –Industry comparisons

71. What is the best overall ratio?

72. A ratio analysis becomes relevant only when compared against a benchmark. Financial managers can create a benchmark for comparison in three ways Selecting a Benchmark 1. Trend analysis 2. Industry Average 3. Peer group

73. Trend analysis Selecting a Benchmark  Based on firm’s historical performance  Allows management to examine each ratio over time, determine whether trend is good or bad for firm

74. Industry average analysis Selecting a Benchmark  Another way of developing benchmark  Firms in same industry grouped by size, sales, and product lines, to establish benchmark ratios  Can identify industry groups with North American Industry Classification System (NAICS)

75. Peer group analysis Selecting a Benchmark  Instead of selecting an entire industry, management may select firms similar in size or sales, or who compete in same market  Average ratios of this peer group would then be used as benchmark  Peer groups can be only 3 or 4 firms, depending on industry

76.  Ratio analysis depends on accounting data based on historical costs Limitations of Ratio Analysis  No theoretical backing in making judgments based on financial statement and ratio analysis  When doing industry or peer group analysis one often encounters large, diversified firms that do not fit into any one SIC code

77.  Trend analysis could be distorted by financial statements affected by inflation Limitations of Ratio Analysis  Multinational firms deal with many accounting standards  Difficult to compare financial reports
