A SMART OVERVIEW OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial Analysis is conducted internally in the company to identify the company’s strengths and weaknesses. Financial Analysis is used from a more external point of view for a number of reasons: To assess the performance of a customer or supplier. To assess performance of a takeover target or a potential investor in one’s own company. To assist in investment decisions of various kinds (buying shares in other companies).
The main purpose of the Financial Analysis is to gain an understanding of the major issues for the company. It works on Profitability, Earning Capacity, Capital Adjustment, Solvency and Liquidity. While making comments we focus on the direction of speed of the change, the level of the ratio or basis for comparison and the cause of the development. We are more focused on the performance of our customers or suppliers, performance of a takeover target or a potential investors, and to assist in investment decisions of various kinds (buying shares in other companies.
