PREFACE
In the world of finance, understanding how to read and
interpret financial statements is a skill that will serve us well,
not just in school but in our future endeavors too. This
project on financial statement analysis, focusing on the Cash
Flow Statement and Ratio Analysis, is designed to help us
grasp these essential concepts.
Cash flow
A cash flow statement is a financial document that provides a summary of a
company's cash inflows and outflows over a specific period of time, typically
divided into operating, investing, and financing activities. It is a crucial tool for
assessing a company's liquidity, solvency, and overall financial health. The
overall purpose of the cash flow statement is to provide stakeholders, such as
investors, analysts, and creditors, with insights into how a company manages
its cash position and whether it generates enough cash to meet its obligations
and fund its growth. A positive net cash flow indicates healthy liquidity, while
negative cash flow may raise concerns about a company's financial stability.
Ratio analysis
Dive into the world of Ratio Analysis, where numbers tell a strategic story. Ratio
analysis is a financial tool that involves evaluating a company's performance
and financial health by examining relationships between various financial
metrics. Ratios are calculated by dividing one financial figure by another,
providing meaningful insights into aspects like profitability, liquidity, solvency,
and efficiency. Ratio analysis helps analysts, investors, and managers make
informed decisions about a company's financial condition and performance.

● Operating Activities:
Positive Operating Cash Flows:
The company generated positive cash flows from its core operating activities, indicating
that its fundamental business operations are generating cash.
The increase in inventories and trade receivables, along with the increase in trade
payables, suggests a strategic approach to working capital management. However,
careful attention is required to balance inventory levels (as it is increased significantly)
and ensure timely collections.
● Investing Activity:
Negative Cash Flows from Investing Activity
The purchase of fixed assets indicates capital expenditure for the expansion or maintenance of
the company's infrastructure. It's essential to monitor such investments for their contribution
to future revenue generation.
● Financing Activity:
Positive Cash Flows from Investing Activity
Share Capital Issuance: The positive cash flow from the issuance of share capital suggests
that the company raised funds through equity. This could be for funding growth initiatives or
strengthening the company's financial position.
Loan Taken: The company has also taken a long-term bank loan. From the financial statement of the
company, it is clear that its financial position is good, but it should ensure that all activities will run
smoothly in the future so that there will not be any problem repaying the loan amount.

Comments on Ratio
Liquidity Ratios:
● Current ratio Improved from 3.08:1 to 4:1 in 2022-23 indicating enhanced
short-term solvency and Quick Ratio: Increased from 1.46:1 in 2021-2022
to 2:1 in 2022-2023 signifying increased ability to meet short-term
obligations without relying on inventory.
Solvency Ratio:
● In the current year, the Debt Equity Ratio has improved
compared to the previous year. It is clear that the company is
increasing its reliance on owned funds, signaling positive
prospects for long-term solvency.
● The change in the Debt to Capital Employed ratio from 1:6 in
2021-22 to 1:7 in 2022-23 suggests a shift in the capital structure.
This shift may imply a strategic move to decrease financial
leverage, potentially lowering financial risk and interest
obligations.
● The increase in the Asset to Debt ratio from 7.6 in 2021-22 to 8.5
in 2022-23 suggests a strengthening financial position for the
company. Stakeholders should view this positively, as a higher
Asset to Debt ratio often signifies a more secure financial
foundation and enhanced capacity to meet financial obligations.
Activity Ratio:
● The decline in inventory turnover from 1.6 to 1.33 suggests a
potential slowdown in inventory management efficiency.
● Trade receivable ratio was 5 times in 2021-22 become 5.55 in
2022-23 is showing slight improvement in cash collection
period.
● The decline in the working capital turnover ratio from 2 to 1.8 suggests a
decrease in the efficiency of working capital utilization. A lower ratio
indicates that the company is generating slightly less revenue per unit of
working capital.
● The increase in the trade payable ratio from 6.66 times to 7.5 times
indicates an extension in the average payment period for trade payables.
This change may suggest that the company is taking longer to settle its
outstanding bills.
Profitability Ratio:
●Gross Profit Margin (from 61.5% to 64%) and
Net Profit Margin (from 32.5% to 36%)
improved in the year 2022-23 than 2021-22,
demonstrating better profitability relative to
revenue.
Conclusion
After analysis cash flow statement and ratio, it is clear that
financial health of the company is quite good. The company
demonstrates positive signs in profitability, liquidity, and solvency
ratios, reflecting strong financial health. However, a slight red flag
in the activity ratios suggests, slight inefficiencies in managing
assets. It is crucial for stakeholders to investigate and address the
factors impacting activity ratios to ensure optimal operational
efficiency and sustained overall financial well-being.
