  1. Chapter 2Analysis of Solvency, Liquidity, and Financial Flexibility • Order Order Sale Payment Sent Cash • Placed Received Received • Accounts Collection • < Inventory > < Receivable > < Float > • Time ==> • Accounts Disbursement • < Payable > < Float > • Invoice Received Payment Sent Cash Disbursed

  2. Learning Objectives • Differentiate between solvency and liquidity ratios • Conduct a liquidity analysis • Assess a firm’s financial flexibility position

  3. Financial Statements - Basic Source of Information • Balance Sheet • Income Statement • Statement of Cash Flows

  4. Solvency Measures • Current Ratio • Quick Ratio • Net Working Capital • Net Liquid Balance • Working Capital Requirements

  5. Current Ratio • Current assets • Current ratio = ------------------------- • Current liabilities • $8,924 • Current ratio = ------------ = 1.00 • $8,933 • 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 • Current ratio 1.72 1.48 1.45 1.05 1.00

  6. Quick Ratio • Current assets - Inventories • Quick ratio = ------------------------------------- • Current liabilities • $8,924 - $306 • Quick ratio = ------------------- = .96 • $8,933 • 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 • Quick ratio 1.64 1.40 1.39 1.01 0.96

  7. Net Working Capital Net working capital = CA - CL Net working capital = $8,924 - $8,933 = ($9) ($000,000) 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 Net working capital $2,644 $2,489 $2,948 $358 ($9)

Cash Cash Cash Mkt Sec Mkt Sec Mkt Sec A/R A/P A/R A/P A/R A/P Inventory N/P Inventory N/P Inventory N/P Prepaid CMLTD Prepaid CMLTD Prepaid CMLTD NWC and its Component Parts CA CL CA CL CA CL NWC = CA - CL WCR = A/R + INV +Pre NLB = Cash + M/S - A/P - N/P - CMLTD Net Working Capital Working Capital Requirements Net Liquid Balance

  9. Working Capital Requirements • ($2,586+$306+$1,394) - ($5,989+$54+$1,458+$1,432) • WCR/S = ------------------------------------------------------------------- • $35,404 • ($4,647) • = ---------- = -.1313 • $35,404 • 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 • WCR/S - 0.029 -0.065 -0.078 -0.114 -0.131

  10. Net Liquid Balance • Net liquid balance = Cash + Equiv. - (N/P + CMLTD) • Net liquid balance = $4,638 - ($0) • = $4,638 • ($000,000) 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 • Net liquid balance $3,181 $4,132 $5,438 $3,914 $4,638

  11. What is Liquidity? • Ingredients • Time • Amount • Cost • Definition • Having enough financial resources to cover financial obligations in a timely manner with minimal costs

  12. What is Liquidity - Examples • Amount and trend of internal cash flow • Aggregate available credit lines • Attractiveness of firm’s commercial paper and other financial instruments • Overall expertise of management

  13. Liquidity Measures • Cash Flow From Operations • Cash Conversion Efficiency • Cash Conversion Period • Current Liquidity Index • Lambda

  14. Cash Flow From Operations ($ 000,000) 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 CFFO $2,436 $3,926 $4,195 $3,797 $3,538

  15. Cash Conversion Efficiency ($ 000,000) 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 CFFO $2,436 $3,926 $4,195 $3,797 $3,538 Revenues 18,243 25,265 31,888 31,168 35,404 Operating profit 2,046 2,457 2,768 2,271 2,844 Net profit 1,460 1,666 2,177 1,246 2,122 (Percentage of sales) Operating profit margin 11.21 9.72 8.68 7.28 8.03 Net profit margin 8.00 6.59 6.82 3.99 5.99 Cash conversion efficiency 13.35 15.54 13.15 12.18 9.99 Cash conversion efficient = CFFO / Sales

  16. Cash Conversion Chart Inventory Inventory Cash stocked sold received Days inventory held Days sales outstanding Days payables outstanding Cash conversion period Cash disbursed

  17. Cash Conversion Period Calculations Cash conversion period = DIH + DSO - DPO (Days) 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 DIH 7.10 7.17 5.79 3.99 3.87 DSO 49.64 38.69 33.14 26.57 26.66 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Operating cycle 56.74 45.86 38.93 30.56 30.53 DPO 62.34 64.92 62.07 72.87 75.79 ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- Cash conversion period -5.60 -19.06 -23.14 -42.31 -45.26

  18. How Much Liquidity is Enough? • Solvency - a stock or balance perspective • Liquidity - a flow perspective • Liquidity management involves finding the right balance of stocks and flows

  19. Current Liquidity Index • Cash assets t-1 + CFFO t • CLI = --------------------------------- • N/P t-1 + CMLTD t-1 • $4,638 + $3,538 • CLI = --------------------- = infinite • $0 + $0

  20. Lambda • Initial liquid Total anticipated net cash flow • reserve + during the analysis horizon • Lambda = ------------------------------------------------------------------- • Uncertainty about the net cash flow during the • analysis horizon

  21. Financial Flexibility • Sustainable Growth Rate Concept: • Uses = Sources • New Assets = New Equity + New Debt • gS(A/S) = m(S+gS)(1-d) + m(S+gS)(1-d)(D/E) • m(1-d)[1 + (D/E)] • g = ---------------------------------- • (A/S) - {m(1-d)[1 + (D/E)]} • .039977 x (1 - 0.00) x (1 + 1.8834) • g = ----------------------------------------------------- = 36.14% • .43426 - [0.039977 x (1 - 0.00)(1 + 1.8834)] • calculation uses 2002 data to calculate the sustainable 2003 g.

  22. Summary • Chapter introduced basic concepts of: • solvency • liquidity • financial flexibility • Solvency: an accounting concept comparing assets to liabilities. • Liquidity: related to a firm’s ability to pay for its current obligations in a timely fashion with minimal costs. • Financial flexibility: related to a firm’s overall financial structure and if financial policies allows firm enough flexibility to take advantage of unforeseen opportunities.
