FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Financial statement analysis is a critical process for evaluating the financial health and
performance of a company. By analyzing financial statements, stakeholders can make
informed decisions about investments, management strategies, and operational
improvements. Python, a powerful programming language, offers numerous libraries and
tools for financial analysis, with Matplotlib being one of the most popular for data
visualization.
Meaning Of Financial Statement Analysis: -
1. Automation: Python can automate the data extraction and analysis process, saving
time and reducing errors.
2. Data Visualization: Libraries like Matplotlib allow for the creation of
detailed and interactive visualizations that make it easier to interpret
complex financial data.
Devices Of Financial Statement Analysis:
There are several methods for determining the financial analysis of the company. They are as
follows: -
1. Ratio Analysis
2. Comparative Statement
4. Trend analysis

FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Thus, the financial position and operational statement provides a summarized view of the
financial position and operation of the firm.
The Financial Analysis statements are thus an important aid to Financial Analysis.
The first task of the Financial Analyst is to select the information relevant to the decisions
under consideration from the total information contained in the financial statements. In the
brief Financial Analysis are the process of selection, relation and Evaluation.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Theoretical Background:
Financial statement analysis helps management understand a company’s financial strengths
and weaknesses, making informed decisions about future plans. It’s a crucial step in planning
and forecasting.
Financial Performance Analysis:
Financial performance analysis is the process of identifying a company’s financial strengths
and weaknesses by analyzing relationships between balance sheet and profit/loss account
items. Various techniques are used, including:
Comparative statements
Schedule of changes in working capital
Common size percentages
Funds analysis
Trend analysis
Ratios analysis
Purposes of Financial Statement Analysis:
1. Measure profitability
2. Indicate trends and achievements
3. Compare with other firms
11
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Inter-Firm Analysis:
12
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Analysis of the financial data related to the same company is known as intra-firm analysis.
❖ Horizontal Analysis:
Comparison of two or more year’s financial data is known as horizontal analysis, or trend
analysis. Horizontal analysis is facilitated by showing changes between years in both dollar
and percentage form.
Horizontal analysis of financial statements can also be carried out by computing trend
percentages. Trend percentage states several years’ financial data in terms of a base year.
The base year equals 100% with all other years stated in some percentage of this base.
❖ Vertical Analysis:
Vertical analysis is the procedure of preparing and presenting common size statements.
Common size statement is one that shows the items appearing on it in percentage form as
well as in Rupees form. Each item is stated as a percentage of some total of which that item is
a part. Key financial changes and trends can be highlighted by the use of common size
statements.
13
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Standards of Comparison
The ratio analysis involves comparison for a useful interpretation of the financial
statements. A single ratio in itself does not indicate favorable or unfavorable condition. It
should be compared with some standard. Standards of comparison may consist of:
❖ Time series analysis the easiest way to evaluate the performance of a firm is to
compare its present ratios with the past ratios. When financial ratios over a period of
time are compared, it is known as the time series analysis.
❖ Cross-sectional analysis Another way of comparison is to compare ratios of one firm
with some selected firms in the same industry at the same point in time. This kind of
comparison is known as the cross - sectional analysis or inter-firm analysis.
❖ Industry analysis To determine the financial conditions and performance of a firm,
its ratios may be compared with average ratios of the industry of which the firm is a
member. This sort of analysis is known as the industry analysis, helps to ascertain the
financial standing and capability of the firm in the industry.
Proforma analysis Sometimes future ratios are used as the standard of comparison. Future
ratios can be developed from the projected, or proforma financial statements. The
comparison of current or past ratios with future ratios showed the firm’s relative strengths
and weaknesses in the past and the future.
Many people use ratios to determine those financial characteristics of the firm in which they
are interested. With the help of ratios, one can determine:
14
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
❖ Performance analysis: It is realized that the short- and long-term financial position and
the profitability of the firm are tested in every kind of financial analysis, but the emphasis
would differ. Some ratios are more important in one kind of analysis than others.
❖ Credit analysis: In credit analysis, the analyst will usually select a few important ratios.
He may use the current ratio or quick-asset ratio to judge the firm’s liquidity or debt-
paying ability; debt-equity ratio to determine the stake of the owners in the business and
the firm’s capacity to survive in the long run and any one of the profitability ratios.
❖ Security analysis: The ratio analysis is useful in security analysis. The major focus in
security analysis is on the long-term profitability. Profitability is dependent on a number
of factors and, therefore, the security analyst also analyses other ratios.
❖ Competitive analysis: The ratios of a firm by themselves do not reveal anything. For
meaningful interpretation, the ratios of a firm should be compared with the ratios of
similar firms and industry. This comparison will reveal whether the firm is significantly
out of line with its competitors.
❖ Trend analysis: The ratio analysis will reveal the financial condition of the firm more
reliably when trends in ratios over time are analyzed.
The essence of the financial soundness of a company lies in balancing its goals,
commercial strategy, product-market choices and resultant financial needs. Ratio analysis is
a very useful analytical technique to raise pertinent questions on a number of managerial
issues.
Profitability analysis
1. How profitable is the company? What is accounting policies and practices are
followed by the company? Are they stable?
2. Is the profitability (RONA) if the company high/low/average? Is it due to:
o profit margin
o assets utilization
o non-operating income
o window dressing
o change in accounting policy
o Inflationary conditions?
15
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Assets utilization
1. What is the level of current assets relative to current liabilities? Is it reasonable given
the nature of the company’s business?
2. How promptly does the company pay its creditors?
3. Given the company’s riskiness and future financial needs, how soundly is it financed?
o What is the mix of debt and equity?
o What is the maturity structure of debt? Is the company faced with large
debt repayments in the near future?
Strategic Analysis
A number of other questions go beyond the scope of ratio analysis. They however need
to be answered while assessing the financial health of the company.
Types of Ratios Several ratios, calculated from the accounting data, can be grouped into
various classes according to financial activity or function to be evaluated. In view of the
requirements of the various users of ratios, we may classify them into the following four
important categories.
● Liquidity ratios
● Leverage ratios
● Activity ratios
● Profitability ratios
● Liquidity Ratios
It is extremely for a firm to be able to meet its obligations as they become due.
Liquidity ratios measure the ability of the firm to meet its current obligations (liabilities).
The failure of a company to meet its obligations due to lack of sufficient liquidity, will result
in a poor credit worthiness, loss of creditors` confidence, or even in legal tangles resulting in
the closure of the company. A very high degree of liquidity is also bad; idle assets earn
16
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
nothing. The firm’s funds will be unnecessarily tied up in current assets. Therefore, it is
necessary to strike a proper balance between high liquidity and lack of liquidity.
The most common ratios, which indicate the extent of liquidity or lack of it, are:
1. Current Ratio
2. Quick Ratio
3. Other ratios include Cash Ratio, Interval Measure and Net Working
Capital Ratio.
● Leverage Ratios
A strong short-as well as long-term financial position. To judge the long-term financial
position of the firm, financial leverage or capital structure ratios are calculated. These
ratios indicate mix of funds provided by owners and lenders. As a general rule, there should
be an appropriate mix of debt and owners` equity in financing the firm’s assets.
The process of magnifying the shareholders` return through the use of debt is called
“financial leverage” or “financial gearing” or “trading on equity”. The following are
some of the liquidity ratios.
1. Debt-Equity Ratio
2. Proprietary Ratio
3. Debt-Equity Ratio (Long-Term)
● Activity Ratios
Funds of creditors and owners are invested in various assets to generate sales and
profits. The better the management of assets, the larger the amount of sales. Activity ratios
are employed to evaluate the efficiency with which the firm manages and utilizes its assets.
These ratios are also called turnover ratios. They are:
17
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
A company should earn profits to survive and grow over a long period of time. Profits
are essential, but it would be wrong to assume that every action initiated by management of a
company should be aimed at maximizing profits, irrespective of concerns for customers,
employees, suppliers or social consequences.
Profit is the difference between revenues and expenses over a period of time (usually
one year). Profit is the ultimate ‘output’ of a company, and it will have no future if it fails to
make sufficient profits. Therefore, the financial manager should continuously evaluate the
efficiency of the company in term of profits. The profitability ratios are calculated to
measure the operating efficiency of the company.

standard_ratio = 2.0
21
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
plt.show()
From the analysis, it was found that the company struggled to maintain the standard 2:1 current ratio in 2020
and 2021, with the ratio dipping to 1.94 and 1.89, respectively. This indicates potential liquidity challenges
during these years, as the company had less than twice the current assets relative to its current liabilities.
However, by 2023, the current ratio improved to 2.15, suggesting that the company took steps to strengthen its
liquidity position.
Reason :The challenges in 2020 and 2021 may have been due to an increase in short-term liabilities or slower
growth in current assets, making it harder for the company to cover its obligations.
Solution: To maintain and improve the current ratio, the company should Optimize working capital
management Reduce short-term liabilitiesEnhance current asset levelsThis will help the company ensure it has
enough liquid assets to cover its short-term liabilities and maintain a healthy financial position.
22
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
Quick ratio, also called acid-test ratio, establishes a relationship between quick, or liquid, assets
and current liabilities. An asset is liquid if it can be converted into cash immediately or reasonable
soon without a loss of value. Cash is the most liquid asset and other assets that are considered to be
relatively liquid. Inventories are considered to be less liquid. The quick ratio is found out by dividing
quick assets by current liabilities.

23
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
plt.show()
From The analysis it was found that the company consistently failed to meet the standard quick ratio of 1:1
throughout the period, with the lowest ratio recorded in 2021 at 0.67. This suggests that the company may
struggle to meet short-term obligations without relying on inventory, which is less liquid.
Reason: The consistently low quick ratio could be due to an overreliance on inventory or a lack of sufficient
liquid assets, such as cash and receivables.
Solution: To improve the quick ratio, the company should focus on reducing inventory levels and increasing
liquid assets. This could involve better inventory management, faster collection of receivables, and maintaining
adequate cash reserves.

4.1.3. Cash Ratio Chart
From The analysisit was found that the cash ratio remained significantly below the ideal level 0.5:1
throughout the period, with the highest value reaching only 0.024 in 2020 and 2023. This indicates a
very limited cash buffer, which could pose a risk in meeting immediate financial obligations.
Reason: The low cash ratio likely results from insufficient cash reserves, possibly due to high
operational costs or ineffective cash flow management.
Solution: The company should aim to build up its cash reserves by improving cash flow management
practices, such as accelerating receivables collections, delaying payables, and controlling unnecessary
expenditures.

2)Profitability Ratios:
4.1.4 Gross Profit Margin
The Gross Profit Ratio (GPR) is a financial metric that calculates the relationship between a
company's gross profit and its net sales. It shows the proportion of revenue that is converted into gross
profit after considering the cost of goods sold (COGS).
# Data
years = [2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023]

standard_ratio = 25.0
27
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
From the analysis, it was found that the gross profit margin ratio measures 30-40% for
manufacturing, higher for service industries Indicates the percentage of revenue that exceeds
the cost of goods sold. The company maintained a healthy gross profit margin, starting at
27.05% in 2019 and improving to 30.00% by 2023. This suggests effective control over
production costs relative to sales.
Reason: The steady increase in gross profit margin indicates efficient cost management,
likely due to better pricing strategies or reductions in production costs.
Solution: To continue improving gross profit margins, the company should focus on further
optimizing production processes and maintaining strong pricing strategies.

4.1.5 Operating Profit Margin Chart
From the analysis, it was found that the company operating profit margin ratio10-15% Reflects the
percentage of revenue left after paying for variable costs of production. Higher ratios indicate better
operational efficiency and cost management. The ratio showed a slight decline from 12.86% in 2019
to 12.04% in 2023, indicating a decrease in operational efficiency.
Reason: The declining operating margin may be due to increased operational costs or pricing
pressures that reduced profitability.
Solution: The company should work on controlling operational costs, possibly by improving process
efficiencies, renegotiating supplier contracts, and enhancing overall cost management.

4.1.6 Net Profit Margin Ratio Chart
From the analysis , it was found that the company net profit margin ratio10-20% measures
the percentage of revenue that remains as profit. A higher margin indicates better overall
profitability and cost management.The ratio improved steadily from 12.44% in 2019 to
13.37% in 2023, indicating enhanced profitability over the years. This trend suggests that the
company has been successful in controlling costs and managing its operations efficiently.
Reason: The increase in the net profit margin may be due to effective cost management,
better pricing strategies, and improvements in operational efficiency.
Solution: To sustain and further improve the net profit margin, the company should continue
focusing on cost control measures, optimizing operational processes, and exploring new
revenue streams to drive growth.

From the analysis it was found that the company return on assets (ROA) 5-10% Measures how
efficiently a company uses its assets to generate profit. A higher ROA indicates more effective asset
utilization.The ROA improved from 8.92% in 2019 to 12.32% in 2023, indicating better asset
utilization and profitability.
Reason: The improvement in ROA suggests that the company has become more effective in using its
assets to generate income, possibly due to better asset management or increased operational
efficiency.
Solution: To maintain or further improve ROA, the company should continue focusing on optimizing
asset utilization and ensuring that investments in assets are generating adequate returns.

From the analysis, it was found that the company return on equity (ROE) 15-20% Evaluates
how effectively a company uses equity to generate profit. A higher ROE indicates efficient
use of shareholders' funds.The ROE was exceptionally high, starting at 192.69% in 2019 and
increasing to 222.47% in 2023. This indicates highly efficient use of equity capital.
Reason: The high ROE may be due to strong profitability combined with a relatively low
level of equity, which amplifies the returns on the shareholders' investment.
Solution: While a high ROE is generally positive, the company should ensure that the use of
leverage is sustainable and does not expose the company to excessive financial risk.
Maintaining strong profitability and prudent equity management is key.

The ratio remained stable, ranging from 20.70% in 2019 to 21.94% in 2023, which is
well below the industry standard of 40%. This suggests a strong equity position and low
financial risk.
Reason: The low debt-to-assets ratio indicates conservative use of debt, which reduces
financial risk and enhances financial stability.
Solution: The company should continue managing its debt levels carefully to maintain
this strong position. If additional financing is needed, the company may consider
balancing between debt and equity to maintain a healthy debt-to-assets ratio.

From the analysis, it was found that the company debt-to-equity ratio Below 1 Measures the
proportion of equity and debt used to finance a company’s assets. A lower ratio indicates less leverage
and financial risk. The ratio remained relatively low, increasing slightly from 32.40% in 2019
to 34.50% in 2023, indicating a conservative approach to leverage.
Reason: The low and stable debt-to-equity ratio suggests that the company has been cautious
with borrowing, relying more on equity financing, which reduces financial risk.
Solution: To continue benefiting from low financial risk, the company should maintain a
balanced approach to financing, using equity as the primary source and borrowing only when
necessary to finance growth opportunities.

stronger financial health and ability to meet interest obligation. The ratio improved from
11.84 in 2019 to 14.11 in 2023, indicating strong financial health and the ability to meet
interest obligations comfortably.
Reason: The improvement in the interest coverage ratio is likely due to increased earnings
before interest and taxes (EBIT), which suggests better profitability and effective cost
management.
Solution: The company should continue focusing on maintaining high profitability and
managing its debt levels to ensure that interest obligations remain easily manageable.
4) Turnover Ratios:
4.1.12 Inventory Turnover Ratio

Reason: The high receivables turnover ratio suggests that the company has been very
effective in collecting payments from customers, possibly due to strong credit policies and
efficient receivables management.
Solution: The company should continue maintaining its effective receivables management
practices to ensure that cash flow remains strong and that outstanding receivables are
collected promptly.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
A comparative balance sheet presents financial data of a company for multiple periods, side
by side, to facilitate easy comparison. This comparison helps in identifying trends, evaluating
the financial health, and making informed business decisions.
Comparative statements are financial statements that cover a different time frame, but are
formatted in a manner that makes comparing line items from one period to those of a
different period an easy process. This quality means that the comparative statement is a
financial statement that lends itself well to the process of comparative analysis. Many
companies make use of standardized formats in accounting functions that make the
generation of a comparative statement quick and easy.
1. Trend Analysis: By comparing data from different periods, businesses can spot
trends in revenue, expenses, and other key financial metrics.
2. Performance Measurement: It aids in assessing the effectiveness of business
strategies over time.
3. Cost Control: Helps in identifying areas where costs have increased, enabling
companies to take corrective actions.
4. Investment Decisions: Provides crucial insights for stakeholders to make informed
investment choices.
The benefits of a comparative statement are varied for a corporation. Because of the uniform
format of the statement, it is a simple process to compare the gross sales of a given product or
all products of the company with the gross sales generated in a previous month, quarter, or
year.
⮚ By comparing line items that catalogue the expense for raw materials in one quarter
with another quarter where the number of units produced is similar can make it
possible to spot trends in expense increases, and thus help isolate the origin of those
increases.
⮚ This type of data can prove helpful to allowing the company to find raw materials
from another source before the increased price for materials cuts into the overall
profitability of the company.
49
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS
⮚ A comparative statement can be helpful for just about any organization that has to
deal with finances in some manner. Even non-profit organizations can use the
comparative statement method to ascertain trends in annual fund-raising efforts.
⮚ By making use of the comparative statement for the most recent effort and comparing
the figures with those of the previous year’s event, it is possible to determine where
expenses increased or decreased, and provide some insight in how to plan the
following year’s event.

From the analysis, it was found that the company The net profit shows an average annual increase of
242.52 units, indicating a general upward trend. However, the low R-squared value of 0.06
