What is surprising, however, is that despite a 51% increase in long term debt during 2014, Martinrea’s debt to equity ratio actually decreased. A closer look at the notes to the financial statements reveals the cause of this decrease. First, while long term debt increased significantly during 2014, the 12% increase in overall liabilities was less significant. As the result of their purchase of the remainder of Honsel Aluminum, Martinrea removed a liability from their balance sheet which previously represented a put option that could force them to purchase this remaining portion. Martinrea ended up making the purchase before this option was exercised, and the removal of this liability dampened the increase in total liabilities. Second, the acquisition of Honsel significantly removed the equity attributable to a non-controlling interest, causing a 24% increase in equity attributable to the shareholders of the company (despite total equity only increasing marginally). These two factors lead to a decrease in Martinrea’s debt to equity ratio.
Shareholder’s Equity
Total shareholders’ equity increased $21,735,000 or 3.9% YoY. Capital stock and contributed surplus increases were quite insignificant, but accumulated other comprehensive income increased 114.4% YoY, and the accumulated deficit decreased $77,104,000 or 54.2% YoY. Other equity is now at zero from ($154,239,000) last year (refer to financial liability) due to the final payment made for the remaining 45% stake in Honsel
CML's equity ratio increased to 0.4 and correspondingly debt ratio decreased to 0.15 from 2001 to 2005. Generally it is a good trend, even though there has been a decrease in equity ratio in 2005 from 0.45 to 0.40 and an increase in debt ratio from 2004 to 2005, it may be due to the acquisition from US group KKR. However, in 2005, equity is almost three times debt, which means the capital structure is still in good condition.
The following report is a brief comparative analysis of two of Australia’s largest deposit-taking financial institutions (FI), Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. (ANZ) and Westpac Banking Corporation (Westpac). This report seeks to identify which of the FIs has a greater aggregate return per dollar of equity and thus establish the highest performer, or most profitable, of the two. The Return on Equity Model (ROE) (Koch & MacDonald,
In order to conclude on the net earnings, a trend was calculated with regards to the return on invested capital (assets). The trend, as computed from the table and graph in annexure 2, shows
Based on the financial ratios calculated, it appears that Pinnacle Manufacturing (the “Company”) is both using up cash assets and increasing its debt. The Cash Ratio has declined each of the past three years indicating that the Company has a decreasing ability to pay its current liabilities from cash and will be required to liquidate assets to pay off current liabilities. The Current Ratio has also declined each of the last three years. In 2009, it was 218.6% or 2.186. This means that for every dollar of current liabilities the Company had $2.18 in current assets with which to pay those liabilities.
I think that my idea is much better because it will free up funds that could be reallocated where it is needed such as healthcare expenses. These issues really need to be addressed and reevaluated and something needs to be done immediately. It will never be practiced because the politicians will not reduce their income and we will continue seeing cutbacks from our veterans, elderly, and disabled populations.
Shareholder’s equity would be lower than that shown in 1982 ($318,000) because the company has to pay off interest and principal for many loans. There will be little money left for shareholder’s equity.
The return on equity (ROE) has also shown an increase in 2009 over the previous year suggesting a successful investment by shareholders. This increase, coupled with the fact that the basic earnings per share (EPS) has increased significantly from 61.78 cents in 2008 to 88.26 cents in 2009 (143%) shows great improvement in the profit per share. Please note that the basic EPS has been used in this analysis as the diluted EPS includes employee options (JBH Annual Report, 2009), skewing and reducing the value of the EPS.
The statement of cash flows outlines some of the changes to the capital structure. The company added $164.5 million in a consolidated loan facility, and it paid out $138.1 million in dividends. There were no share buybacks during the year. The company states in the annual report (p.4) that it intends to maintain a conservative gearing ratio. The company in this section attributes its increased borrowings to projects and opportunities on which it has embarked. These investments lie within the integrated retail, franchise and property system. One of the
The company lost money almost every year since its leveraged buyout by Coniston Partners in 1989. The income generated was not sufficient to service the interest expenses of the company which stood at $2.62B in 1996. From Exhibit 1, we can say that interest coverage ratio computed as EBIT / Interest Expense was 1.31 in 1989 and has been decreasing over years and currently stands at 0.59. This raises a question of how the company can meet its interest payments without raising cash or selling assets.
Net income totaled $97.8 million in 1984, an increase of 5% from 1983.when looking at the Consolidated Balance Sheet (Exhibit2), we found that the total assets grew 15% to $2.7 billion at the end of fiscal 1984 due to addition of real estate inventories as part of the acquisition of another company. The ratio of debt to total capitalization jumped to 43% at 1984 from 20% at previous year.
Balance Sheet: Assets, such as Cash and Cash equivalents are up over last year by $20.72 million dollars, whereas Short Term Investments where 0 at the end of 2013 they were slightly up to $1.12 by January 3, 2015. Other Assets shows a drop of $8.26 million dollars, mostly in Property, Plant and Equipment. Based on the 10-K report the balance sheet was in the thousands other web based financial reporting sites show the numbers to be in the millions. Upon further review of the Balance Sheet from the financial website “Watch” the break down in Property, Plant and Equipment shows the biggest difference in the Accumulated Depreciation. (Market Watch) The Vertical Ratio for 2014 Total Current Assets is 3% of the Total Assets and in 2013 was also 3%. The Horizontal Ratio for Total Asset were 37% reflecting a change from 2014 at $212.05 and 2013 $195.61 signaling a significant increase in 2014. The 2015 financial were not completed at the time of this report but the
Financial results and conditions vary among companies for a number of reasons. One reason for the variation can be traced to the characteristics of the industries in which companies operate. For example, some industries require large investments in property, plant, and equipment (PP&E), while others require very little. In some industries, the competitive productpricing structure permits companies to earn significant profits per sales dollar, while in other industries the product-pricing structure imposes a much lower profit margin. In most low-margin industries, however, companies often experience a relatively high rate of product throughput. A second reason for some of the
The long-term liquidity risk ratio such as LT debt/Equity, D/E, and Total Liabilities to Total Assets all show a decline from year 2005 due to the repayment of debts. The interest coverage ratio also shows a healthy number of 29.45 in comparison to the industrial average of 15.04 indicating a high ability to pay out its interest expense. Such a low relative risk is not surprising due to the nature of its business depending heavily in R&D development and large intangible assets.
At the same time, stockholders' equity ("net worth") has greatly increased by 26.82% from the same quarter last year. The company has grown to a bigger size.
quantity of net income dollars of company earned for each dollar invested by the owners was 8.5% in 2010 and 10.4% in 2011 reflecting an increase of 1.9%. After analyzing the solvency ratios the following highlights were found: Riordan’s debt of totals assets ratio indicates company’s capability to survive losses without spoiling the interests of creditors. For 2010 was 14% and during 2011 was 29.4%, showing an increase of risk of 15.4% (higher the number, higher the risk that leads the company to be unable to meet its maturing obligations). The company’s time’s interest earned ratio that determines company’s capability to meet interest payments as they come due was 26.9 in 2010 and 8.3 in 2011. A high ratio on times interest earned may lead to investors to think that a company has an undesirable lack of debt or is paying down too much debt with earnings that could be used for other projects (Investopedia, 2013). Subsequently evaluating our performance and efficiently of the collected data, it reveals that Riordan Manufacture has displayed remarkable progress in comparison between years 2011 and 2010. The company liquidity demonstrates that we are capable to
