Income Statement
PSLs income statement shows that from 2009 to 2011 the growth in sales has led to higher net
income. Net income however falls significantly after 2011 even though sales continue to rise.
The main reason for this is the rise in cost of sales leading to lower gross profit and higher
operating expenses and finance costs leading to low levels of EBT. The income statement clearly
shows that the company was performing at its best in 2011 with the highest net income of
286,304,000 and an EPS of 5.11

8/10/2019 FSA Analysis
6/27
PSLs balance sheet shows an increase in owners equity from 2009 to 2011 after which it
remains about the same till 2013. The rise in equity was mainly due to the increase in
unappropriated profit during these years.
The non-current liabilities portion has grown till 2012 where it is at its highest of 546,070
compared to the initial 37,898. The main contributor to this increase was the introduction of long
term finance in 2012 which was also present in 2013 but by a smaller amount. Current liabilities
show an increasing trend throughout the period being highest in 2013 and lowest in 2009.
Total Assets tend to be rising throughout the 5 year period which shows PSLs growth as a
company. Both current and non-current assets have risen to contribute to this growth. In the non-
current assets portion Property plant and equipment has grown by over 280% over the 5 years. In
current assets there has been a significant rise in stores and spares and inventory throughout, with
cash and bank balances only increasing till 2011 and then falling from 2012 to 2013.

Statement of Cash Flows
For year 2009 through 2013

8/10/2019 FSA Analysis
8/27
The cash flow from operating activities shows a decreasing trend form 2009 to 2012 when it
reaches an all time low of -90,845 (outflow of cash). However in 2013 the downward trend ends
as the cash flow from operating activities goes back up to 194,277 increasing by 285,122 in 1
year.
Investing activities show cash outflow throughout the 5 years with the highest amount of cash
being used up in 2011 and lowest in 2013. The high amount being paid out in 2011 was due to
the high capital expenditures during this time period.
Financing activities show inflow of cash only during 2009 and 2012. The highest amount of cash
used up was in 2013 when 363,492 were used up for financing activities.

Common Sized Income Statement
Looking at the common-sized income statements we can see that cost of sales remain the highest
proportion of net income in all years, being the highest (95%) in 2010 and lowest (85%) in 2011
and fluctuating between these values in the remaining years. Cost of sales being the lowest in
2011 as a percentage of sales is what contributes to the high net income of this year. EBT and
Tax expense is also highest for 2011 due to the same reason, with EBT being 10% of sales and
tax 3.7%. Finance costs increased over the years as a percentage of sales and so did the operating
expenses, being highest in 2013.

8/10/2019 FSA Analysis
11/27
The equity and liabilities portion of this common-size analysis shows us that that over the 5 years
shareholders equity keeps decreasing as a percentage of total liabilities and equity, being 69% in
2009 and just 36% in 2013. The non-current liabilities, though a much smaller percentage of
total equity and liabilities, has shown significant increase over the years being as much as 18% in
2012.The increase in the percentage of current liabilities shows us that PSL has chosen to replace
equity with current liabilities as it makes for the majority proportion of the total liabilities and
equity in recent years, and this is due to the significant increase in short term borrowings over the
years.
Common size analysis of the assets section of the balance sheet shows us that current assets
make up for a larger percentage of total assets in all years. However, there has been significant
increase in the percentage of non-current assets till 2011 where it is as high as 43.7% of total
assets, (due to a drastic increase in property, plant and equipment) after which it falls again
slightly for the next 2 years.

Trend Index
In the trend index we take 2009 as the base year to keep its values as benchmark for PSLs
performance in later years. The most significant increase over the years has been in the non-
current liabilities which have increased by over a 1000% in 2012 and 2013 as compared to 2009.
Trade debts have significantly increased and so have the total liabilities and stock in trade.
Positive signs for PSL are the increase in current assets and net sales and the decrease in
administrative and general expenses. Working capital shows an increasing trend since 2010 but
in comparison to 2009 base year value it is still lower than the starting point. Negative signs
include drastically rising finance costs and cost of sales is also increasing over the years.

Per Share Results
Per share results can help us analyze the financial health of PSL from the investors point of
view. Average shares outstanding are the same for each year which helps make comparisons
simpler. Sales per share shows a significant increase throughout the year being the highest (91.43
rupees per share) in 2013 as compared to 43.77 in 2009. The Net income per share (EPS)
fluctuates massively in 2011 when it goes to a record high of 5.11 per share. In the last 2 years
however it has come back to its average value of around 0.7 per share. The per share dividends
only have significant values in 2010 and 2012. In the other years dividends were either not paid
out or too low to give a significant DPS value. This is not necessarily a bad sign for investors as
PSL probably retains its earnings for growth prospects in these years. The book value per share
increases from 2009 to 2011 after which it falls but not too significantly.

Cash Flow Ratios
The company has a cash flow adequacy ratio of 0.35 and is much below the industry average.
This means that companys operations do not produce sufficient cash to meet necessary business
obligations. This also shows how the company cannot cover the annual payments of all the long-
term annual debt with the cash flow from its operating activities.
Cash reinvestment ratio shows a decreasing trend till 2012 after which it picks up and goes to
5.2% in 2013 after being negative in 2012. This means that the company should be reinvesting
more and should not hold back earnings. 2012 has however been the worst year with a negative
ratio contrary to a higher net income comparatively. By reinvesting profits the company will get
to compound your investment and over time create substantially higher returns.

Short term Liquidity Analysis
Short term liquidity analysis shows us that current ratio is highest in 2009 and then is lower inthe coming years. This is due to the current liabilities increasing at a greater rate than current
assets for PSL. Even though the current ratio falls it remains above the industry average in most
years and almost equal to the industry average in 2010 and 2011. This is a good sign as it shows
that PSL is more liquid and has its current liabilities covered better than other firms in the
industry.
The acid test ratio also falls over the years but still remains above the industry average of 0.53
for all years signifying that PSL has a better proportion of quick assets than other firms.
PSL also has a lower accounts receivable turnover than the industry average for all years exceptfor 2011. This is not a healthy sign as it shows that PSLs accounts are cleared slower than the
other firms in the industry. Inventory turnover however shows positivity as it is higher than the
industry average for most years. This shows that PSLs sales are rising by more than its
inventories compared with other firms.
Approximate conversion period is the sum of the days sales in receivables and days sales in
inventories. PSL has a lower conversion period than the industry average in all years showing

that it is more efficient in its sales and collection of receivable process than other firms in the
industry.
The ratios for cash show a worrying sign in the recent years as they fall below industry average
even after doing well in earlier years. This shows that PSL has a lower cash to current
assets/liabilities ratio than other firms in the industry.

Common Size Analysis of CA & CL
This analysis takes into consideration current assets and current liabilities separately in a
common-sized statement to study the impact of their individual components. Looking at current
assets first we can see that the major chunk comes from stock in trade (inventories), which make
up for about 48% of total current assets in 2013 which is a significant increase from the 34% in
2009. Second largest component is trade debts (accounts receivable) which is 34% similar to its
value in 2009 with some fluctuations in between. Cash and bank balances shows an interesting
trend as its percentage to total current assets increases till 2011 (26.13% highest) and then falls
sharply in the next two years to just 4.23% of current assets which means PSL has less cash
available.

Looking at current liabilities we see that starting off in 2009 the liabilities are dominated by trade
and other payables which make up for 84% but in later years this percentage drops mainly due to
the introduction of short term borrowings which are highest in 2011 and go down in the next 2
years. Current portion of long term finance also increases making up for 7.9% of the total current
liabilities in 2013.

Capital Structures and Solvency Ratios
Total debt to equity ratio for PSL shows an increasing trend throughout the year being highest in
the last 2 years at around 1.79. This value shows that PSLs operations are majorly debt financed
but still this value is a lot lower than the industry average of 5.64 showing that other firms in the
industry have used a greater degree of debt financing than PSL.
Total debt ratio for PSL increases initially before becoming constant at 0.64 in the last 2 years,
showing that the total debt can be financed by 64% of the total assets. This value is less than the
industry which is a good thing because it means that the other firms need more assets to finance
their debts than PSL.
Long term debt ratio is also lower than the industry average for all years even though it increases
over the years. Equity to total debt ratio decreased over the years showing that PSL is moving
towards a higher degree of debt financing.
Fixed assets to equity is below 1 for all years showing that all of the fixed assets can be financed
by the equity. This is much lower than the industry average of 4.3 showing that other firms in the
industry have 4 times as much fixed asset as their equity.

Return on Invested Capital Ratios
RNOA shows an increasing trend for the first three years after which it falls, being highest in
2011 at 12.95%. This was because NOPAT was highest for PSL during this time period. ROCE
shows a very similar trend as net income followed the same trend as NOPAT during the years.
Compared to industry averages both returns are much low signifying that PSL is getting less
return on operating assets and common equity than other firms in the same industry.

Asset Utilization Ratios
Sales to cash equivalents shows an overall upward trend throughout the years. However, the ratio
is very low as compared to the industry average. This means that the cash and equivalents were
not translated into enough sales in that year. Sales to receivables is also low compared to the
industry average in all years, meaning that receivables are a bigger proportion of sales for PSL
compared to other firms which is not a good sign.
Sales to inventories ratio shows a good sign till 2011 when it is above the industry average which
meant that more inventories were being converted into sales however the value drops in the last 2
years and comes close to the industry average which means that PSL is not doing any better than
other firms in its inventory management.
In the rest of the ratios PSL is not drastically different from other firms in the industry as its
average value revolves around the industry average showing that it is doing well. Sales however
do tend to be more than the assets as compared to other firms.

Analysis of Profit Margin Ratios
The gross profit margin shows ups and downs throughout the 5 years that we have analyzed. Its
highest point was 14.12% in 2011 due to the high sales and profit during this year. The valuesare however hard to compare to the industry average because of the abnormally high average
value of 241% showing that other firms have a much higher gross profit margin. This could be
due to the sample of firms that we have taken for our analysis.
Operating profit margin remains below industry average for all years except in 2011 when the
profit was highest. Net profit margin also shows a drastic drop after 2011 and all values are much
below industry average showing that PSLs profit margins are much lower compared to other
firms in the industry.

Price to earnings ratio shows a highly fluctuating trend with its values being highest in 2012 and
2013 due to high share prices and a fall in EPS. 2011 has the greatest EPS and hence the lowest
price to earnings ratio.
Book value rises from 2009 to 2013 but not by as much as the price of the shares hence the price
to book ratio rises throughout however it is still well below the industry average of 6.96.
Dividend payout is close to zero for 2009, 2011 and 2013 but in the remaining two years it is
over the industry average due to high dividends being paid during these years. The dividend
yield shows a similar pattern to the dividend payout ratio. Earnings yield increases for the first

Conclusion
Bankers perspective:
Before giving out the loans the bankers would check the credit history of a company and itsability to meet its short term and long term obligations. CC12 shows the liquidity of the
company. The current ratio is above the industry average because of the increase in the current
assets over the current liabilities. The acid test ratio is higher than the industry average. This
implies that the company has enough assets to pay off its liabilities and is not at any risk.
Company also has higher cash flow generated from operations to cover its finance cost however
it is still below the industry average.
So as a banker I would give loan to this company on the basis of its increase in short term
liquidity.
Investors perspective:
In order to decide whether to invest in a company, the ideal ratios to analyze are the Market
measures. The first ratio is the Price to earnings ratio which shows an increasing trend. This
shows that the company has enough earnings to attract shareholders or the price of the share is
high. High dividends were paid in 2010 and 2012 even though these were not periods of high net
income and dividend yield and payout ratio is high for these two years. In the other years,
especially in 2011 when the net income was highest, dividends were not paid. This however,
should not be taken as a bad sign for investors. The earnings that were retained during the years
that dividends were not paid contributed to growth and in turn led to higher share prices in the
last two years which the investors can look to benefit from in the form of capital gain.
