Financial Statement Analysis:

Introduction The process of reviewing and evaluating a company's financial statements (such as the balance sheet or profit and loss statement), thereby gaining an understanding of the financial health of the company and enabling more effective decision making. Financial statements record financial data; however, this information must be evaluated through financial statement analysis to become more useful to investors, shareholders, managers and other interested parties.

Advantages of financial statement analysis The different advantages of financial statement analysis are listed below: The most important benefit if financial statement analysis is that it provides an idea to the investors about deciding on investing their funds in a particular company. Another advantage of financial statement analysis is that regulatory authorities like IASB can ensure the company following the required accounting standards. Financial statement analysis is helpful to the government agencies in analyzing the taxation owed to the firm. Above all, the company is able to analyze its own performance over a specific time period.

Limitations of financial statement analysis In spite of financial statement analysis being a highly useful tool, it also features some limitations, including comparability of financial data and the need to look beyond ratios. Although comparisons between two companies can provide valuable clues about a companys financial health, alas, the differences between companies accounting methods make it, sometimes, difficult to compare the data of the two. Besides, many a times, sufficient data are on hand in the form of foot notes to the financial statements so as to restate data to a comparable basis. Or else, the analyst should remember the lack of data comparability before reaching any clear-cut conclusion. However, even with this limitation, comparisons between the key ratios of two companies along with industry averages often propose avenues for further investigation.

Well-established distribution networks, intense competition between the organized and unorganized segments characterize the FMGC sector. It is expected to grow by over 60% by 2010. That will translate into an annual growth of 10% over a 5-year period. It has been estimated that FMCG sector will rise from around Rs 56,500 crores in 2005 to Rs 92,100 crores in 2010.Hair care, household care, male grooming, female hygiene, and the chocolates andconfectio nery categories are estimated to be the fastest growing segments, says an HSBC report. Though the sector witnessed a slower growth in 2002-2004, it has been able to make a fine recovery since then. For example, Indian Tobacco Company Limited (ITC) has shown a healthy growth in the last quarter. An estimated double-digit growth over the next few years shows that the good times are likely to continue. Growth Prospects With the presence of 12.2% of the world population in the villages of India, the Indian rural FMCG market is something no one can overlook. Increased focus on farm sector will boost rural income, hence providing better growth prospects to the FMCGcompanies. Better infrastructure facilities will improve their supply chain. FMCG sector is also likelyto benefit from growing demand in the market. Because of the low per capitaconsumption for almost all the products in the country, FMCG companies have immense possibilities for growth. And if the companies are able to change the mindset of the consumers, i.e. if they are able to take the consumers to branded products and offer new generation products, they would be able to generate higher growth in the near future. It is expected that the rural income will rise in 2007, boosting purchasing power in the country side. However, the demand in urban areas would be the key growth driver over the long term. Also, increase in the urban population, along with increase in income levels and the availability of new categories, would help the urban areas maintain their position in terms of consumption .At present, urban India accounts for 66% of total FMCG consumption, with rural India accounting for the remaining 34%. However, rural India accounts for more than 40%consumption in major FMCG categories such as personal care, hot beverages. In urban areas, home and personal care category, including skin care, household care and feminine hygiene, will keep growing at relatively attractive rates. Within the foods segment, it is estimated that processed foods, bakery, and dairy are long-term growth categories in both rural and urban areas
