Financial statement analysis

 

The financial statement analysis is based on the financial statement data of Meconet Oy in the accounting period as at 31.12.2005. The analysis also utilizes the data of the accounting periods 2001-2004.

 

The company is the parent company of the group Meconet -konserni. The group turnover is 23.7 mill EUR, result 712 tEUR, balance sheet total 8.9 mill EUR, return on investment 14.5 %, and equity ratio 23.6.

 

The auditor has approved the financial statement without remarks.

 

Industry comparison   

The comparison includes 30 companies in the industry class 28740 Manufacture of fasteners, screw machine products, chains and springs. The risk of bankruptcy in the line is 0.0 %, and the risk of payment defaults 7.3 %. The risk of payment defaults is lower than average.

 

Volume              

The turnover of Meconet Oy is large (20.9 mill EUR) in relation to all active companies. In its line, the company is clearly larger than average (563 tEUR). The change in turnover from the previous period is -2.0 %. The development of turnover was clearly poorer than that in the line. If this continues, it will lead to a distinct reduction in market shares. In the latest accounting period, the company employed 183 persons on average. The turnover per person is 114 tEUR, which is satisfactory compared with the line (median 113 tEUR).

 

Profitability      

The operating margin of the company (7.6 %) is poor, proportioned to the line (median 15.7 %). Also the operating income in % (3.0 %) is poor, compared with the line (9.3 %), referring to a dangerously low contribution margin. The central ratio for profitability, return on investment, is satisfactory (10.3 %). This is lower than the average in the line (median 22.2 %). In the long term, the development of profitability has been exceptionally positive.

If, instead of the return on investment, the return on assets is calculated, taking also into account interest-free loans, the return ratio is 7.5 %. The return is passable, in relation to the line of business (16. 9%).

 

Liquidity            

The liquidity is satisfactory, measured by quick ratio (0.7), which is lower than the average in the line (median 1.2). The sales receivable turnover of the company is relatively long (39 days) compared with the line (33 days).

 

Solvency           

The solvency of Meconet Oy is passable, measured by equity ratio (21.3 %). Median in the line is 45.6 %, so the company´s solvency is clearly poorer than that of the line. The company´s net gearing is 2.4, which can be considered passable. The relative indebtedness is 30.5%, which is satisfactory compared with the median in the line (26.8%).

The company has the qualifications to improve its solvency in the future, provided that the profitability remains on the present level.
