1 Fundamental Analysis and Stocks Economics 71a: Spring 2007 Mayo, Chapter 9 Lecture notes 3.3

2 Why Read or Care?  Investment strategies Growth  Use accounting numbers to estimate growth Value  Compare accounting numbers to price

3 Goals  Accounting statements  Financial ratios  Ratios and valuation

4 Accounting Statements  Income statement  Balance sheet  Statement of retained earnings  Statement of cash flows

5 Income Statement  Flow variables  Revenues – Cost of goods sold

6 Income Statement Example  Sales revenues $50  Cost of goods sold $-25  Advertising/Admininstrative expenses $-2  Depreciation $-5  Interest payments $-1  Taxes $-3  Earnings 50-25-2-5-1-3 = $14  EBIT = Earnings before interest and taxes = 50-25-7 = $18 (operating income)

7 Extraordinary Items: One Time Income and Expenses  “Below the line”  Should come after other items  Part of total earnings  Left out of EBIT “core earnings”, “operating earnings”  Definitions are blurry on this

8 Examples  Lawsuit settlements  One time asset sales (patents/real estate)  Pension fund adjustments  Changing accounting systems

9 Income Statement Example  Total revenues $50  Cost of goods sold $-25  Advertising + Admin. expenses $-2  Depreciation $-5  Interest payments $-1  Taxes $-3  **Earnings 50-25-2-5-1-3 = $14 (“core earnings”)  EBIT = Earnings before interest and taxes = 50-25-7 = $18 (operating income)  Lawsuit settlement = $-8  Earnings 50-25-2-5-1-3-8= $6

10 Balance Sheet Accounting Value of the Firm  Assets (things firm owns)  Liabilities (Loans)  Stockholders’ equity (Assets - Liabilities) Also called  Book value  Net worth

11 Assets  Cash  Accounts receivable  Inventories  Land  Plant and equipment Less: Depreciation

12 Liabilities  Accounts payable  Notes payable (short term debt)  Long term debt

13 Balance Sheet  Assets Cash $5 Plant and equipment $100  Liabilities Accounts payable $1 Long term debt $75  Shareholder equity 105-76 = $29 Book value

14 Balance Sheet  Shareholders equity Common stock (at issue)  $10 Capital surplus  $5 Retained earnings  20 Purchased stock (negative)  Treasury stock -6 10+5+20-6 = 29

15 Cash Flow  Pure measure of incoming - outgoing cash  Differences with income statement No depreciation No accounts payable/receivable Inventories (account for costs of producing and putting in inventory)

16 Cash Flow Parts  Operating Activities  Investment Activities  Financial Activities

17 Operating Cash Flow  Earnings = $5 Adjust to get to cash flow  Depreciation : +5 –Why? Remove depreciation adjustments  Increase in accounts payable: +5 –Why? Haven’t paid this yet.  Increase in accounts receivable: -2 –Why? Haven’t received this yet.  Increase in inventories: -10 –Production costs reflect only goods sold. Adjustment: 5+5+5-2-10 = 3 = operating cash flow

18 Investment Cash Flow  Increase in gross fixed assets  Purchases of new plant and equipment  -30 million : New office building  Total investment cash flow = -30 million

19 Finance Cash Flow  Increase in long term debt:  +50 million of incoming funds  Dividends:  -20 million payout of divs  Total finance cash flow = +30 million

20 Depreciation  Assets “wear out”  Firms slowly write them off  Balance and income statements  Types of depreciation Straight line depreciation  Same amount each year  Example: 10 years, $100,000 = $10,000 per year Accelerated depreciation  More in the early years Production based depreciation

21 Tax Impact of Depreciation (Timing Effects, 10% tax rate, Asset size = 300) Year (Straight) Earnings Before D Deprec.Tax 130010020 230010020 330010020 (Accel.) 130020010 23005025 33005025

22 Goals  Accounting statement  Financial Ratios  Ratios and valuation

23 Financial Ratios  Ratios of various financial variables  Uses Analyze financial well being of a firm Compare different stocks in terms of current values  “Find good investments”

24 Ratios  Liquidity ratios  Activity ratios  Profitability ratios  Leverage ratios  Coverage ratios  Market ratios  Dividend payout ratio

25 Liquidity Ratios  Current ratio Current assets / Current liabilities Short term, ability to pay bills  Quick ratio (Current assets - inventory) / Current liabilities Take short term inventory out of current assets

26 Activity Ratios  Inventory turnover Sales/(Average inventory)  Receivables turnover (Annual credit sales)/(accounts receivable) High number indicates rapid turnover in credit sales  Fixed asset turnover Sales/(fixed assets) (land, plant + equipment)

27 Profitability Ratios  Operating profit margin EBIT/Sales  Net profit margin Earnings/Sales  Gross profit margin (Revenues-Cost of goods sold)/sales

28 Profitability Ratios  Return on total assets (ROA) Earnings/(total assets)  Return on equity (ROE) Earnings/(shareholder equity)

29 Leverage Ratios  Debt to net worth Debt/(share holder equity)  Debt ratio Debt/(total assets)

30 Coverage Ratios  Times-interest earned EBIT/ (interest charges)

31 Market Ratios  Share price versus accounting value  Very important  Examples Price/Earnings ratio Market/Book (M/B) ratio Dividend yield (dividend/Price)

32 Price Earnings Ratio P/E Ratio

33 Price Earnings Ratio  Price per earnings  Example: Microsoft  About 20  $20 per $1 of earnings

34 High Flying P/E’s  AOL (1999) near 600  Dell Computer (1999) 100  For many dot com’s no P/E since earnings are zero

35 PEG Ratio

36 Market to Book Ratio (M/B)

37 Market to Book Ratio  Market value of the firm relative to its accounting value  Key tool for “value investors”  Extensive academic evidence that low market to book firms do better on average

38 Dividend Yield  Dividend/Price % payout in dividends relative to price A little like interest, but not really Dividends are not guaranteed

39 Dividend Payout  Net Income Dividends Retained Earnings  Dividend Payout ratio = Divs/Earnings

40 Goals  Accounting statement  Financial Ratios  Ratios and valuation

41 Fundamental Analysis  Use information about firm to evaluate stock price  Growth Estimate earnings growth and future prospects  Value Find “undervalued” stocks

42 Ratio Analysis  Many methods  Compare ratios to appropriate comparison set  Example: P/E ratio for a pharmaceutical firm Compare to industry If low -> buy

43 Problems With Accounting Information  Misses “intangibles” Knowledge base (patents) Customer base  Sometimes numbers are zero or negative

44 More Problems with Accounting Information  There are many ways to derive accounting numbers  Large “fudge factors”  Can clever accountants make things look better?

45 Accounting “Tricks”  Off balance sheet items Enron Stock options  Expenses to balance sheet Worldcom AOL maintenance -> new investment  Log revenue forecasts now Xerox  Taking over low p/e firms

46 Goals  Accounting statement  Financial Ratios  Ratios and valuation
