Financial Statement Analysis 2

Introduction

Objective

My objective is to introduce you to the analysis of financial statements. The

goal of the analysis is to obtain information about the timing, magnitude, and

riskiness of future cash flows. This information can then be combined with

other qualitative information to determine a firm’s creditworthiness.

Perspective

Last year, you learned to analyze the financial statements of a commercial

bank to determine the bank’s strengths and weaknesses and to provide

direction for future policy decisions. This year, we will use a similar set of

tools in the assessment of credit risks for commercial loan customers.

We will end our discussion with a loan analysis for Butler Lumber Company,

a small, growing firm that is looking for financing.

Financial Statement Analysis 3

Determining Credit Risk

Our objective is to use quantitative analysis to determine the credit

worthiness of the applicant firm. One of the most important questions

from the lender’s perspective is

“Will the customer be able to repay the loan from operating cash flows?”

This analysis provides several benefits:

It helps separate good credits from bad credits.

We do not want to extend credit to a customer who will default.

However, it is also costly to deny credit to a customer who can repay.

It identifies the borrower’s strengths and weaknesses and possible sources

of risk

It provides information to loan officers that helps them set up the terms of

the loan

Financial Statement Analysis 4

Analysis of Financial Statements Important Points

It is necessary to compare performance to various benchmarks

Trends: Generally 3 to 5 years worth of data is necessary to ascertain how

the firm’s financial performance is changing over time.

Industry: It is helpful to compare the firm’s performance to that of the

industry (or industries) in which it operates. Although industry averages may

not indicate where a firm wants to be, the comparison is helpful in analyzing

trends.

Competitors: It is also useful to compare the firm’s performance to that of

specific firms, such as the direct competition. These may be more

comparable than the overall industry.

It is extremely important to carefully read and analyze the annual report

- including the footnotes to the financial statements. Often these will

point to other factors, such as contractual obligations, past and future

financing policies, plans for further expansion or restructuring, or the

sale of part of the firm’s assets - that significantly affect the entire

financial analysis.

Financial Statement Analysis 5

Analysis of Financial Statements Important Points (cont’d)

The analysis may raise further questions for which additional

information must be obtained (either from more in depth analysis or by

asking firm management). The important point is not to view the

financial analysis as an end in itself.

Also note: accounting conventions and window dressing.

Financial Statement Analysis 6

Tools of Financial Analysis Common-Size Financial Statements

Common-Size Financial Statements are a popular way to convert

dollar figures to relative (%) figures. They are routinely used with

income statements and balance sheets.

Income Statement

A common-size income statement is constructed by dividing the various

components of the income statement by net sales. Hence, net sales equals

100% and everything else is presented as a percentage of net sales.

Balance Sheet

A common-size balance sheet is calculated in the same manner, except that

all the statement components are divided by total assets to put them on a

common percentage basis.

Financial Statement Analysis 8

Tools of Financial Analysis Financial Ratio Analysis

Financial Ratio Analysis is the study of the relationships that exist

among and between various financial statement accounts at a given

point in time. It expands the information content of financial statements.

In essence, the financial statements are converted into more useable

information so that a better understanding can be obtained about the

company.

Some uses of financial ratios

Enable an analyst to understand a firm’s risk and future cash flow

generating ability

Enable a banker to asses a firm’s creditworthiness

The mechanics are simple

Selected information is gathered from the financial statements and used to

compute a set of ratios

Ratios are then compared to benchmarks.

Financial Statement Analysis 9

Financial Ratio Analysis Benchmarks Revisited

Financial ratios provide useful tools for analysis when compared

against a standard or norm. Two such norms are commonly used.

Trend Analysis

Compare the firm’s financial ratios to a similar set of ratios from previous

financial statements.

Industry Averages

Compare the firm’s financial ratios to a similar set of ratios computed for

a comparable group of firms. Sources of industry average ratios

include:

Dun and Bradstreet publishes annually a set of 14 key ratios for 125

lines of business.

Robert Morris Associates, the national association of bank loan and

credit officers, publishes a set of 16 key ratios for 350 lines of

business.

Many are also available on the internet

Financial Statement Analysis 10

Financial Ratios Categories

We will discuss five categories of financial ratios, each representing an

important aspect of the firm’s financial condition.

Internal liquidity

Operating performance

Risk profile

Growth potential

External liquidity

Note: Exact definitions of many ratios (and categories for that matter) vary

from publication to publication and user to user.

To illustrate the ratios, we will use the financial statements of Barnes &

Noble and Borders Group

Two major booksellers

Financial Statement Analysis 11

Financial Ratios Categories (cont’d)

Internal Liquidity

Indicates the ability of the firm to meet future short term financial

obligations. These compare near term financial obligations, such as

accounts payable or notes payable to current assets or cash flows that will

be available to meet these obligations.

Examples: current ratio, quick ratio, AR & Inventory turns

Operating performance

Operating efficiency ratios examine how management uses its assets and

capital, measured in terms of the dollars of sales generated by various asset

or capital categories

Examples: Total asset turnover, equity turnover

Operating profitability ratios analyze profits as a percentage of sales and as

a percentage of the assets and capital employed

Examples: gross margin, net profit margin

Page 12: Georgia Banking School Info/Banking School/2016/Courses/Second... · We will end our discussion with a loan analysis for Butler Lumber Company, ... Enable an analyst to understand

Financial Statement Analysis 12

Financial Ratios Categories (cont’d)

Risk profile

Relates to the uncertainty of income flows for both the entire firm and to

individual providers of capital (equity investors, debt holders, etc).

Comprised of business risk (variability of firm due to industry and economy)

and financial risk (variability brought on by introducing debt into capital

structure).

Growth potential

Indicates how fast a firm can/should grow without raising external capital.

Determined by the amount of resources retained and reinvested in the

business and the rate of return earned on these resources.

External liquidity

Market liquidity is ability to buy or sell an asset quickly with little price

change from the last transactions. Market liquidity is determined by the

number of shares (or dollar value) traded, and a smaller bid – ask spread.

Corporate variables that are proxies for market liquidity are total market

value and number of security holders, along with trading turnover as a % of

shares outstanding that trade in a given year.

Financial Statement Analysis 13

Internal Liquidity Ratios

Liquidity ratios help the financial analyst answer the following question:

Does the firm have sufficient cash and liquid assets to pay bills on

time?

Current Ratio

Current liabilities represent the firm’s maturing financial obligations.

The firm’s ability to repay these obligations when due depends largely

on whether it has sufficient cash together with assets that can be

converted into cash before the current liabilities mature. The firm’s

current assets are the primary sources of funds to repay current and

maturing financial obligations.

Quick Ratio

Since inventories are generally the least liquid of the firm’s current assets, it

may be desirable to remove them from the numerator in the current ratio,

thus obtaining a more refined liquidity measure.

inventory is using its inventory more efficiently than a similar firm that had

$4 million invested in inventory.

Inventory Turnover

The efficiency with which a firm is managing its investment in inventories is

reflected in the number of times that its inventories are turned over during

the year.

Operating Performance Ratios Profitability

Profitability ratios help us answer some very important questions

regarding the effectiveness of the firm’s management in producing

profits from the resources entrusted to them.

Profitability ratios often fall under two categories

Profitability in relation to sales

These ratios can be used to asses the ability of the firm’s management

to control various expenses in generating sales. These ratios are

commonly referred to as Profit Margins.

Profitability in relation to investment

These ratios measure firm profits in relation to the funds invested to

generate those profits. They are useful in assessing the overall

effectiveness of the firm’s management.

Operating Performance Ratios Profitability: Return on Owner’s Equity

Return on Equity

This ratio provides an indication of how effective the management is from all

equity holders point of view.

It is directly affected by the return on total assets and the amount of

financial leverage employed.

This ratio, although helpful, does not focus on the returns that actually flow

to the investor in terms of cash dividends and/or market appreciation. For

this reason, return on equity is not a reliable measure of returns from the

investors’ viewpoint.

Risk Analysis Business Risk: Operating Earnings Variability

Business Risk

Defined as the uncertainty of income caused by the firm’s industry.

In turn, this uncertainty is due to the firm’s variability of sales caused by its

products, customers and the way it produces its products.

Generally measured by the variability of the firm’s operating income

over time.

Sales Variability

Financial Statement Analysis 44

Risk Analysis Business Risk: Operating Leverage

Operating leverage refers to the use of fixed production costs

Fixed production costs cause operating profits to vary more than sales

over the business cycle.

During slow periods, profits decline by a larger percentage than sales;

during an expansion, profits will increase by a larger percentage than sales.

Change in Operating Earnings

Operating Leverage = Change in Sales

Financial Statement Analysis 45

Risk Analysis Leverage Ratios

How has the firm financed its assets?

Can the firm afford the level of fixed charges associated with its use of

non-owner supplied funds such as bond interest and principal

repayment?

We define leverage as resulting from the firm’s use of debt, financial

leases, and preferred stock.

These sources all require a fixed cash payment or return for their use.

If the firm earns a return higher than that which is required by the suppliers,

then the excess goes to the owners.

However, should the return of the firm fall below the required return, then

the owners get nothing.

Earnings Flow Ratios Leverage: Interest Coverage

Can the firm afford the level of fixed charges associated with its use of

non-owner supplied funds such as bond interest and principal

payments (or lease payments)?

Here we are using earnings information. These ratios are sometimes

referred to as Coverage Ratios.

Interest Coverage

This ratio indicates the firm’s ability to meet its interest payments out of its

annual operating earnings. It measures the number of times the firm is

covering its interest.

Du Pont Analysis Profitability, Efficiency

Du Pont Analysis

To improve its financial analysis, Du Pont introduced a system that ties

together relationships that might otherwise be missed. It ties:

Net Profit Margin, Total Asset Turnover, and Debt to Total Assets

This system focuses attention on the separate ideas of profitability and

asset utilization (efficiency).

Using Du Pont Analysis, we can also see how the firm’s use of leverage

affects the return on equity. Anything that changes net profit margin, total

asset turnover, or debt to total assets will affect return on equity.

Breaking down ROE (Net Income / Equity)

Net Income Sales Total AssetsROE = × ×

Sales Total Assets Common Equity

= Profit Margin x Total Asset Turnover x Financial Leverage

= ROA×Leverage

Barnes and Noble, Borders Summary Financial Ratios - Interpretation

Efficiency (cont’d)

Overall takes borders longer to convert products into cash

BKS uses fewer assets per sales dollar

Profitability

From 2001 to 2003 net and operating margins increased for both BKS and

Borders, albeit more dramatically for BKS. Gross margins remained fairly

constant. Borders has slightly higher gross margin (more specialized

products?).

ROA and ROE increase for both firms in 2003 – both have similar ROA for

the year ended in 2003.

Note that BKS uses significantly more leverage than Borders, affecting the

variability of many of these performance measures.

Limitations of Ratio Analysis

It is sometimes difficult to identify the industry category to which a firm

belongs when the firm engages in multiple lines of business.

Published industry averages are only approximations and provide the

user with general guidelines rather than scientifically determined

averages of the ratios of all or even a representative sample of the

firms within the industry.

Financial Statement Analysis 62

Limitations of Ratio Analysis (cont’d)

Accounting practices differ widely across firms and can lead to

differences in computed ratios.

Also note: Definitions of ratios vary slightly from publication to publication

and user to user.

Many firms experience seasonality in their operations.

Some ratios meaningless over short horizons

Other measures of cash flow for the firm?

The statement of cash flows for a firms tracks cash in three areas:

operations, financing, and investing.

The cash flow from operations is essentially net income with

adjustments for depreciation and working capital.

Investing cash flow tracks expenditures on plant, property, and

equipment.

Financing cash flow tracks cash from the purchase and sale of

liabilities and equity.
