Financial statement analysis

 

The financial statement analysis is based on the financial statement data of Kultajousi Oy in the accounting period as at 31.07.2006. The analysis also utilizes the data of the accounting periods 2002-2005. The length of the latest accounting period of the company (7months) is exceptional; therefore, the ratios have been changed to correspond to 12 months. The comparability of the ratios in relation to previous months and the line of business may still be poorer than usual.

 

The auditor has approved the financial statement without remarks.

 

Industry comparison               The comparison includes 90 companies in the industry class 52487 Retail sale of jewellery, watches and clocks. The risk of bankruptcy in the line is 1.2 %, and the risk of payment defaults 5.2 %. The risk of payment defaults is lower than average.

Volume                                   The turnover of Kultajousi Oy is large (16.1 mill EUR), on 12 month level (27.5 mill EUR). In its line, the company is clearly larger than average (357 tEUR). The turnover decreased somewhat in the latest accounting period (-7.2 %). 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 227 persons on average. The turnover per person is 121 tEUR, which is very good compared with the line (median 89 tEUR). Thus, the productivity of labour is on a very high level. The productivity increased steeply in the latest accounting period.

Profitability                              The operating margin of the company (5.5 %) is passable, proportioned to the line (median 10.4 %). The operating result in % (2.1 %) is poor, compared with the line (9.7 %), which refers to a dangerously low contribution margin. The central ratio for profitability, return on investment, is passable (7.9 %). This is lower than the average in the line (median 15.1 %).

 

If, instead of the return on investment, the return on assets is calculated, taking also into account interest-free loans, the return ratio is 6.1 %. The return is passable, in relation to the line of business (12. 4%).

 

Liquidity                                  The liquidity is satisfactory, measured by quick ratio (0.9), which is better than

the average in the line (median 0.5). The average age of accounts receivable of the company (2 days) is short, as is the case in the line of business (3 days).

Solvency                                 The solvency of Kultajousi Oy is very good, measured by equity ratio (50.0 %). The median of the equity ratio in the line is 50.0%. The company´s net gearing is 0.6, which can be considered good. The relative indebtedness is 43.8%, which is passable compared with the median in the line (29.7%).

Summary and remarks            Because of its solvency, the company has the qualifications to also bring the profitability to at least a satisfactory level in order to secure the preconditions for activities in the long term.

The verbal interpretation of the financial statements analysis has been produced programmatically from unadjusted financial statements.
