Ratio Analysis
By examining financial accounts such as the balance sheet and income statement,
ratio analysis is a quantitative approach of acquiring insight into a company's
liquidity, operational efficiency, and profitability.
Ratio analysis can be used to track a company's progress over time and compare
it to other companies in the same industry or sector.
While ratios provide useful information about a company, they should be used in
conjunction with other measures to provide a more complete view of its financial
health.

broadly classified into the following categories.

gauge a company's ability to pay off its debts in short term.

COMMENTS ON FINANCIAL RATIOS
1-LIQUIDITY RATIOS
Operating cash inflows increased compared to the previous year, owing to higher profitability
and favorable working capital improvements. The Corporation has as of 31 Dec 2021, there was
Rs. 7,488.88 million in cash and cash equivalents.
To accomplish its investment and operational cash requirement, the company must meet the
deadline of December 31, 2020.
Current ratio (2020: 2.30, 2019: 2.13), quick / acid test ratio (2020: 1.57, 2019: 1.09) and cash to
current liabilities (2020: 1.10, 2019: 0.48) have improved versus last year mainly on account of
higher cash and bank balances.
Current ratio (2019: 1.80, 2018: 1.96), quick / acid test ratio (2019: 0.92, 2018: 1.30) and cash to
current liabilities (2019: 0.40, 2018: 0.86) have declined versus last year mainly on account of
lower cash and bank balances.
2-PROFITABILITY RATIOS
Profitability ratios of the Company, in general, have improved versus last year
In 2020, Gross profit margin improved to 34.6% versus 28.3% last year. Net profit margin
increased to 12.9% versus 4.3% last year in line with the reasons mentioned above.
In 2019, Profitability ratios of the Company, in general, have declined versus 2018.
Gross profit margin declined to 28.3% versus 33% last year. Net profit margin declined to 4.3%
versus 9.1% during 2018.
3-Leverage Ratio
Here you can see that debt to asset ratio is increasing gradually in every year which is not a good
sign. A high ratio also indicates that a company may be putting itself at risk of defaulting on its
loans if interest rates were to rise suddenly.
A high percentage of debt-to-equity ratio also suggests that if interest rates rise quickly, a
company may be at risk of defaulting on its loans.
As you can see that debt to capital Ratio in increasing. If all other factors are equal, a corporation
with a higher debt-to-capital ratio is riskier. This is because the higher the debt-to-equity ratio,
the more the company is supported by debt rather than equity, implying a higher obligation to
repay the debt and a higher risk of loan forfeiture if the debt is not paid on time.
A high asset to equity ratio can indicate that a business can no longer access additional debt
financing, since lenders are unlikely to extend additional credit to an organization in this position.
