Then, you will complete your analysis by writing a short synopsis of your findings in the space below the analysis. Prompt: Follow the steps below to analyze the financial health of two competitors. Use the Module Two Activity Template to complete this task. Select two companies operating in the same industry (for example, Macy’s and Dillard’s). The companies have to be in the same business for the ratios to be valuable to your analysis. Then, complete the template, providing the following:     Ratio Research: Use the template to analyze the selected ratios (profitability, financial strength, valuation, management effectiveness, dividends, and efficiency) for both of the competitors. To complete this part, you can reference the Morningstar website in the Module Two resources to obtain the ratios. You can also use the SEC EDGAR Company Filings resource from Module One to obtain the ratio from annual reports. Please note: The ratios have to be from the same time period (the same year for both competitors). For training on how to use Excel, visit the Hoonuit training site or search YouTube to find appropriate Excel training videos. Industry Ratios: To analyze ratios for the companies, you also need to obtain the ratios for the industry that the competitors operate in. Industry values for the ratios can be found in the index column. If no index value is available, put the five-year averages for both companies in the industry column and use these figures for the industry comparison of your ratio analysis. Ratio Analysis: Compare the two companies based on their ratios. Use the last column in the template to write in detail how each company is doing based on the ratios. Compare the company ratios to the industry and each other. Summary: This short write-up should be done directly in your Excel spreadsheet. o What is a ratio analysis? Briefly explain in about one paragraph. Please quote your resource. o Referring to the ratio analysis, in which company would you be willing to invest and why? Note: This is a theoretical exercise. You should not be investing according to this analysis. Rubric Guidelines for Submission: Complete and submit the Excel Worksheet template provided.

Briefly explain in this space, and reference your resources: Referring to your ratio analysis above, in which company would you be willing to invest, and why? RATIO ANALYSIS ed companies. DATA LOCATION Gross Profit as a percentage of sales. If low or declining, product costs may be increasing and/or selling prices decreasing (steeper discounts). A low or declining Gross Profit % indicates less ability to sell goods at intended selling price, or rising cost of goods, or both. EBITD margin measures how much cash profit a company made in a given year. Measures how much profit a company makes on a dollar of sales, after paying VC (wages, RM), but before paying interest or tax. An indicator of how well it is being managed and how risky it is. Consistently high pretax profit margins are a sign of a healthy company balancing increasing sales and reducing costs. The rate of tax paid on pre-tax profits. Indicates extent to which claims of short-term creditors are covered by "quick" assets*. If Current Ratio is OK, but Quick Ratio is low or declining, the cause may be excessive nonliquid inventory. A "2.0 to 1" ratio means that there is $2.00 of current assets for every $1 in current liabilities, which suggests that short-term creditors can be reasonably sure of being paid. If current liabilities are rising faster than the current assets from which they must be paid, company could become insolvent (unable to pay its debts) and eventually bankrupt. Used to determine leverage. When the ratio is comparatively high, it implies that a business is at greater risk of bankruptcy as it might not be able to pay for the interest expense on the debt if its cash flows decline. The financing supplied by creditors as compared to financing supplied by the owner-stockholders. Debt to Assets and Debt to Equity are alternative benchmarks that measure long-term solvency. Higher ratios (high leverage) mean greater risk that cash flows from operations will be insufficient to cover interest and principal payments. Used to determine how easily a company can pay interest on its outstanding debt. It measures how many times a company can cover current interest payments with available earnings. The multiple-times-earnings that investors are willing to pay, based on their perception of future share price. High P/E ratio means that investors perceive good growth potential—but they could be (and often are) wrong. Compares stock price to revenues as an indicator of the value placed on each dollar of a company's sales or revenues. Shows how much investors are willing to pay per dollar of sales for stock. A low ratio could imply the stock is undervalued while a ratio that is higher than average could indicate that the stock is overvalued. A lower P/B ratio could mean the stock is undervalued. Varies by industry and used in combination with other ratios. (In theory) the lowest price at which a stock should trade; the amount an investor would receive per share at liquidation. Higher ratios have the potential to leave investors with greater share price losses The dollar value an investor is willing to pay for the cash flow generated by the firm. It compares the cash flow of the business to its market value in an effort to demonstrate if the valuation is justified or not. Generally, a low ratio indicates an undervaluation. A more conservative measure of Price to CF as it reflects the actual cash flow available to fund nonasset-related growth. Indicates a company's ability to generate additional revenues. A lower value indicates that the company is undervalued. A higher value indicates an overvalued company. Measures how well management is managing assets to generate profit from operations. A low or declining rate could mean that assets are not being utilized effectively. Approximate measure of an investment's profitability. Useful in evaluating the potential return from a stand-alone investment as it is in comparing returns from several investments. Measures rate of return on stockholders investment. (However, "dividend yield" for stockholders is generally much less.) Low return could be caused by high debt, i.e., high interest expense. Measures the percentage of a stock's market value that is returned annually as dividends to stockholders. Measures the percentage of earnings paid annnually to common shareholders as cash dividends. Measures how much revenue each employee generates for the firm. Most useful when comparing it against that of other companies in the same industry, or looking at historical changes in a company's own ratio. Measures how much Net Income each employee generates for the firm. Most useful when comparing it against that of other companies in the same industry, or looking at historical changes in a company's own ratio. Number of times per year receivables were generated and then paid ("turned over"). If the turnover ratio is decreasing or avg number of days to collect is increasing or is substantially greater than credit terms (e.g., "30 days, net"), then credit and collection policies may need to be strengthened. Number of times merchandise items are sold and restocked ("turned over") per year. If the turnover ratio is decreasing or number of days in Inventory is increasing, inventory may becoming outdated and possibly overstated Measures how efficiently a business uses its average total assets to generate sales (i.e. the amount of net sales generated for each average dollar of total assets invested). es: o invest, and why?
