The Annual Report
The Annual Report is issued annually by a firm to its shareholders, which contains the managements
analysis of the firms past operations and future prospects as well as the following basic financial
statements:
Balance Sheetprovides a snapshot of a firms financial positionat one point in time.
Income Statement summarizes a firms revenues and expenses over a given period of time;
also known as Profit and Loss (P&L) Statement
Statement of Retained Earnings shows how much of the firmsearnings were retained, rather
than paid out as dividends
Statement of Cash Flows reports the impact of a firms activitieson cash flows over a given
period of time.
F/S: Balance Sheet
Shows a firms assets, liabilities, and
shareholdersequity, using the actual cost
of acquiring them, at a given point in time
Accounting Book Valuevalue of an
asset as shown in the balance sheet; it
represents the historical cost of the asset
rather than current market value or
replacement cost
Balance Sheet Equation :
Total Assets = Total Liabilities
+ Total Shareholders Equity
Total Resources of the Firm = How it was financed by Debt or Capital
o Shows what assets the firm owns and who has claims on those assets as of a given date

Overview of Balance Sheet: TOTAL ASSETS
I. CURRENT ASSETS1. Cash2. Accounts Receivables (A/R)
3. Inventories4. Other Current Assets
Current Assets- called Gross Working Capital because these assets turn over (used &replaced within a year)
Cash - refers to Cash on hand, demand deposits, short-term marketable securities thatcan be quickly converted into cash
A/R - money owed by customers who purchased goods & services on credit
Inventories- raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods held for eventual sale

II. LONG-TERM (FIXED) ASSETS1. Net Property, Plant, and Equipment2. Other Long-Term Assets
A. LandB. Long-Term InvestmentsC. Intangible Assetslike Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks, Goodwill
Depreciation Expensea non-cash expense (found in Income Statement) to allocate thecost of depreciable assets, such as machinery and equipmen t, over the assets expecteduseful life
Accumulated Depreciation sum of all depreciation taken over the entire life of adepreciable asset (found in Balance Sheet)
Gross Fixed Assetsreflect the original cost of fixed assets
Net Fixed Assets = Gross Fixed Assets minus Accumulated Depreciation taken over lifeof the assets
Overview of Balance Sheet: TOTAL LIABILITIES
I. CURRENT LIABILITIES
1. Accounts Payables (A/P)2. Accrued Expenses3. Short-Term Debt (Notes Payable)4. Other Current Liabilities

SE = Par Value of Common Stocks + Paid-In Capital + Retained Earnings; shows howmuch a firms equity changed during the yearand why this change occurred
Retained Earnings - cumulative profits retained in the firm up to the date of the balancesheet; represents a claim against assets, which does not represent cash and are notavailable for dividends or anything else; it may also be negative to show unrealized losseslike forex losses
*Stock Dividend distribution of shares of up to 25% of the number of shares outstanding,issued on a pro rata basis to the current shareholders

Return on Equity (ROE) refers to accounting rate of return earned on the commonstockholders investment
Return on Total Assets (ROA)indicates the rate of return being earned on the firms assets
Effects of Debt on ROA and ROE
ROA is lowered by debt:Interest lowers Net Income, which also lowers ROA = NI/Assets
Use of debt also lowers equity:Hence, debt could raise ROE = NI/Equity
Problems with ROE
ROE and shareholder wealth are correlated, but problems can arise when ROE is the sole
measure of performance: ROE does not consider risk ROE does not consider the amount of capital invested Might encourage managers to make investment decisions that do not benefit shareholders
ROE focuses only on return. A better measure is one that considers both risk and return.
The DuPont Equation
A formula that shows the relationship among asset management, debt management, andprofitability ratios:
ROE = Net Income X Sales X Total Assets_____
Sales Total Assets Total Common Equity
Profit Margin - ExpenseControl; tells the firm howmuch it earns on sales,which determines itscommand on premium priceand holding down of costs
Total Assets Turnover -Asset Utilization; tells thefirm how many times theprofit margin is earned eachyear for each pesos of salesand how many times itsassets turned over eachyear
Equity Multiplier DebtUtilization; the adjustmentfactor

Statement of Cash Flows
Profits and cash flows are not the same thing!
Two Ways to Measure a Firms Cash Flows:
Free Cash Flows the amount of cash available from operations after the firm pays forthe investments it has made in operating working capital and fixed assets. This cash isavailable for distribution to firms creditors and owners.
Statement of Cash Flows focuses on identifying the sources and uses of cash thatexplain the change in the firms cash balance reported in the balance sheet
Potential Uses of Freed Up Cash
Expand business
Reduce debt Repurchase stock
All these actions would likely improve the stock price
Statement of Cash Flows
Three Key Activities that Explain Cash Inflows & Cash Outflows of the Firm:
1. Generating Cash Flows from Day-to-Day Operations - how much cash is coming from thenormal course of operating a business, starting with :
- purchasing inventories on credit- selling on credit- paying for the inventories- collection on sales made on credit

2. Investing in Fixed Assets & Other Long-Term Investments - when a firm purchases orsells fixed assets, like equipment or building, there can be a significant cash inflows andoutflows
3. Financing the Business - cash inflows & outflows occur from:- borrowing and repaying S/T and L/T Debt- paying dividends to the shareholders- issuing new equity stocks or repurchasing stocks from shareholders

Overall Statement of Cash Flows:
Converting a Firms Income Statement from anAccrual Basis to CashBasis in Two (2) Steps:
1. Add Back depreciation to net income since depreciation is not a cash expense
2. And Subtract the following:- any uncollected sales (or total sales minus increases in accounts receivables)- cash payments for inventories (or increases in inventories minus increases in
accounts payables)

Economic Value Added (EVA)
A financial performance that measures a firms economic profit, which assigns: cost to the equity capital (the opportunity cost of funds provided by the shareholders) interest cost on the firms debt
Economic Value Added Equation:
EVA = Operating Return - Cost of x Totalon Assets All Capital Assets
= Php Amount (if positive, then there is added economic value)
Value created by management is determined by the amount the firm earns on its invested capitalrelative to the cost of both equity and debt funds, and the amount of capital invested in the firm(which are the total assets)
Computing for Economic Profit:
Market Value Added (MVA)
MVA = Market value __ Equity capitalof equity supplied
Market Value Ratios:
PRICE / EARNINGS RATIO= Market Price per Share__
Earnings per Share
PRICE / BOOK RATIO= Market Price per Share___
Equity Book Value per Share

Price/Earnings Ratio (P/E Ratio)the price the market places on Php 1 of the firms reportedearnings
Price / Book Ratio (P/BV Ratio)If > I, then investors believe that the firm is more valuable
than the amount shareholders have invested in it
Analyzing Market Value Ratios
Price-Earnings Ratio (P/E): How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of earnings?
Price-Cash Flow Ratio (P/CF): How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of cash flow?
Price-Book Value Ratio (M/B): How much investors are willing to pay for $1 of book valueequity?
For each ratio, the higher the number, the better.
P/E and M/Bare high if ROEis high and risk is low.
Trend Analysis and Benchmarking
Used to estimate the likelihood of improvement ordeterioration in financial condition
Trend Analysis - analyzes a firms financial ratios overtime
Benchmarking- comparing with the industrys average
can help determine how the firm is faring with othercompanies
Potential Problems and Limitations of Financial Ratio Analysis
Comparison with industry averages is difficult for a conglomerate firm that operates in manydifferent divisions
Average performance is not necessarily good, perhaps the firm should aim higher
Seasonal factors can distort ratios
Window dressing techniques can make statements and ratios look better
Different operating and accounting practices can distort comparisons.
Sometimes it is hard to tell if a ratio is good or bad.
Difficult to tell whether a company is, on balance, in strong or weak position.

SUMMARY: Five Major Categories of Financial Ratios(What questions do they answer?)
Liquidity: Can the firm meet the required payments as they fall due?These ratios give an idea of the firms ability to pay off debts that are maturing within a year.
Asset Management: Does the firm manage its assets efficiently to generate enough sales?These ratios give an idea of how efficiently the firm is using its assets.
Debt Management: Does the firm finance its assets with the right mix of debt and equity?These ratios give an idea of how the firm has financed its assets as well as the firms ability torepay its long-term debt.
Profitability: Are the Firm's managers providing good returns on shareholders' capital? Do salesprices exceed unit costs, and are sales high enough as reflected in PM, ROE, and ROA?These ratios give an idea of how profitably the firm is operating and utilizing its assets.
Market Value: Are the Firm's managers creating shareholders' value? Do investors like what
they see as reflected in P/E and M/B ratios? These ratios give an idea of what investors thinkabout the firm and its future prospects based on its stock price.
