INTRODUCTION
All businesses require effective planning and financial management. Ratio analysis is a useful
management tool that will help understanding financial results and trends over time. It provides
key indicators of organizational performance. Most managers are using ratio analysis to pinpoint
strengths and weaknesses from which strategies and initiatives can be formed. Creditors and
Investors may use ratio analysis to measure company’s financial results against other
organizations or make judgments concerning management effectiveness or investment
opportunities.
The assignment is based on study project on ratio analysis of any company to find out its
financial standing as a part of EMBA. It was assigned by Najaf Shah.
The company we choose to study is Indus Motor Company.
Indus Motor company (IMC) was incorporated in 1989 as a joint
venture company between the House of Habib of Pakistan,
Toyota Motor Corporation and Toyota Tsusho Corporation of
Japan. The Company manufactures and markets Toyota and
Daihatsu brand vehicles in Pakistan.
The main product offerings include several variants of the
flagship ‘Corolla’ in the passenger cars category, ‘Hilux’ in the
light commercial vehicles segment and ‘Fortuner’ in Sport Utility
Vehicle Segment. The manufacturing facility and offices are located at a 105 acre site in Port
Qasim, Karachi, while the product is delivered to end customers nationwide through a strong
network of 37 independent 3S Dealerships spread across the country. During 24 years IMC has
sold more than 500,000 vehicles and has demonstrated an impressive growth, in terms of
volumetric increase from a modest beginning of 20 vehicles per day production in 1993 to 210
units daily at present through the development of human talent embracing the ‘Toyota Way’ of
quality and lean manufacturing. Over the years, IMC has made large scale investments in
enhancing its own capacity and in meeting customer requirements for new products. Today,
Corolla is the largest selling automotive brand model in Pakistan and it also has the distinction
of being #1 in Toyota’s Asian market.

COMPETITORS
Indus Motor Company is competing with Honda, Suzuki, Nissan, Hyundai, etc. Honda and
Suzuki are major competitors however other products are not with a tough competition.
Passenger Cars:
In passenger cars segment IMC market share declined by 2% to 52,761 units in which the Company’s
market share was 55% or 29,087 units compared to 60% share achieved for FY 2013. Decline in market
share was due to the run out model of Corolla 10th Generation.

CURRENT RATIO
A social enterprise needs to ensure that it can pay its salaries, bills and expenses on time.
Failure to pay loans on time may limit your future access to credit and therefore your ability to
leverage operations and growth.
A ratio less that 1 may indicate liquidity issues. A very high current ratio may mean there is
excess cash that should possibly be invested elsewhere in the business or that there is too
much inventory. Most believe that a ratio between 1.2 and 2.0 is sufficient. A high current ratio
Liquidity RatioLiquidity Ratio
Current RatioCurrent Ratio
Quick RatioQuick Ratio

may mean cash is not being utilized in an optimal way. For example, the excess cash might be
better invested in equipment.
The one problem with the current ratio is that it does not take into account the timing of cash
flows. For example, company may have to pay most of its short term obligations in the next
week though inventory on hand will not be sold for another three weeks or account receivable
collections are slow.
According to company financial statement IMC is in Strong Liquidity position and they are able
to pay their liabilities very well. Company’s liquidity position appears to have remained stable
and it increased in 2014. Suzuki is also in the same strong situation; however Honda seems in
trouble due to its increased liabilities. Indus motor will not face any problem in paying back its
short term liabilities however Honda may have problem to satisfy its short term obligations when
they come due. This is strong point for investors to invest in Indus motor and least likely with
Honda (a major competitor in sedan category).
A current ratio can be improved by increasing current assets or by decreasing current liabilities.
Steps to accomplish an improvement include:
• Paying down debt
• Acquiring a long-term loan (payable in more than 1 year’s time)
• Selling a fixed asset
• Putting profits back into the business

QUICK RATIO
A more stringent liquidity test that indicates if a firm has enough short-term assets (without
selling inventory) to cover its immediate liabilities. This is often referred to as the “acid test”
because it only looks at the company’s most liquid assets only (excludes inventory) that can be
quickly converted to cash).
A ratio of 1:1 means that the company can pay its bills without having to sell inventory. Assets
considered to be “quick” assets include cash, stocks and bonds, and accounts receivable. In
other words, all of the current assets on the balance sheet except inventory.
Quick ratio is similar to the current ratio but it excludes inventory from current assets. Indus
motor company looks in better condition here to pay its liabilities. However Honda seems in
trouble due to its liabilities.

INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO
The number of times the company turn its inventory over into sales during the year or how many
days it takes to sell inventory.
This is a good indication of production and purchasing efficiency. A high ratio indicates inventory
is selling quickly and that little unused inventory is being stored (or could also mean inventory
shortage). If the ratio is low, it suggests overstocking, obsolete inventory or selling issues. In
general, the higher the ratio, the more frequently the inventory turned over.
Indus motor ratio indicates strong sales in 2013 and 2014 against its competitors.
THE DAYS SALES OUTSTANDING
The number of times trade payables turn over during the year. The higher the turnover, the
shorter the period between purchases and payment. A high turnover may indicate unfavorable
supplier repayment terms. A low turnover may be a sign of cash flow problems.

DSO Shows the time needed to collect accounts receivables. Due to the high importance of
cash in running a business, it is in a company's best interest to collect outstanding receivables
as quickly as possible.
Looking at Indus motor company, Sales outstanding receivable are collected within 1 or 2
weeks. Suzuki seems higher days to receive sales receivable which can lead to the risk of cash
shortage. Indus motors have a very good credit and collection policies. Average collection
period of around 1 week for 2013 and 2 weeks in 2014 which is amazing. Suzuki has around 2
months’ time period in 2014 and Honda has 20 days’ time period. This shows that Indus motor
is quite efficient in collecting their credit within a short time.
ASSET TURNOVER RATIO
How efficiently business generates sales on each dollar of assets. An increasing ratio indicates
that company is using its assets more productively.
Indus Motor company higher fixed-asset turnover ratio shows that the company has been more
effective in using the investment in fixed assets to generate revenues.
Looking at the fixed asset turnover ratio investors are more likely to invest in Indus Motor
Company because of large generation of revenue from these assets.

Higher Total Asset turnover of Indus Motor shows that company can operate with fewer assets
than other less efficient competitors, and so requires less debt and equity to operate. The result
is of this high ratio is comparatively greater return to its shareholders.

risk for creditors because of their greater liabilities.

PROFIT MARGIN ON SALES
Creditors and investors use this ratio to measure how effectively a company can convert sales
into net income. Investors want to make sure profits are high enough to distribute dividends
while creditors want to make sure the company has enough profits to pay back its loans
Indus motors Profit margin on Sales shows that it is in much better position as compare to other
competitors. Higher ratios as compare to Suzuki & Honda ensures higher dividend to investors
and payback creditors liabilities. Investors feel more secured in investing IMC.
BASIC EARNING POWER
A business's ability to generate profit from conducting its operations. Earnings power is
used to analyze stocks to assess whether the underlying company is worthy of investment.
Possessing greater long-term earnings power is one indication that a stock may be a good
investment.
The higher the Basic Earning Power ratio, the more effective a company is at generating income
from its assets. Hence Indus Motor Company is in strong position as compare to its competitors.

It is useful for comparing firms with different tax situations and different degrees of financial
leverage
RETURN ON ASSETS
Measures Company’s ability to turn assets into profit. This is a very useful measure of
comparison within an industry. It is a measure of how effectively company utilized its assets to
make a profit. A low ratio compared to industry may mean that competitors have found a way to
operate more efficiently. After tax interest expense can be added back to numerator since ROA
measures profitability on all assets whether or not they are financed by equity or debt.
The higher the firm’s return on total asset considers the better. Return on total asset of Indus
Motor appears to be improved from year 2013 and rose to 15% in 2014. Competitors are far
from IMC, showing IMC better management and asset utilization.
RETURN ON EQUITY
Rate of return on investment by shareholders. This is one of the most important ratios to
investors. It shows that company is making enough profit to compensate for the risk of being in
business. The return on equity ratio (ROE) measures how much the shareholders earned for
their investment in the company. Indus Motors has higher ratio percentage shows that
management is efficiently utilizing its equity base and the better return is to investors.
ROE is more than a measure of profit; it's a measure of efficiency. A rising ROE suggests that a
company is increasing its ability to generate profit without needing as much capital. It also
indicates how well a company's management is deploying the shareholders' capital. In other
words, the higher the ROE the better. Falling ROE is usually a problem.

IMC ROE shows that company is generating Rs. 0.20 profit for every Rs. 1 shareholder.

values.

PRICE/EARNINGS RATIO (P/E RATIO)
A high P/E suggests that investors are expecting higher earnings growth in the future compared
to companies with a lower P/E. However, the P/E ratio doesn't tell us the whole story by itself.
It's usually more useful to compare the P/E ratios of one company to other companies in the
same industry, to the market in general or against the company's own historical P/E. It would not
be useful for investors using the P/E ratio as a basis for their investment to compare the P/E of
a technology company (high P/E) to a utility company (low P/E) as each industry has much
different growth prospects.
Price/Earning ratio shows that Investor for Indus Motors has to pay Rs. 9.38 to earn Rs. 1.
Looking at Indus its ratio is increasing, which shows positive growth. Hence Indus is returning
good return to its investors.

CASH FLOW PER SHARE
Cash flow per share is a financial ratio that measures the operating cash flows attributable to
each share of common stock. It is a variation of the earnings per share which substitutes net
income with net cash flows from operations.
Cash flow per share is more reliable than price/earnings ratio. Most of the investors look at cash
flow per share and positive growth in this ratio shows the company growth in profitability. IMC
positive growth in cash flow per share is an indicator of company’s good market condition.
MARKET/ BOOK RATIO
A ratio used to compare a stock's market value to its book value. It is calculated by dividing the
current closing price of the stock by the latest quarter's book value per share.
For value investors, M/B remains a tried and tested method for finding low-priced stocks that the
market has neglected. If a company is trading for less than its book value (or has a M/B less
than one), it normally tells investors one of two things: either the market believes the asset value
is overstated, or the company is earning a very poor (even negative) return on its assets. Indus
motors I having a positive value and is increased in 2014 showing a positive trend in market
value as well it gain investors trust.

CONCLUSION
Indus Motor Company performance is well and stayed aligned with the competition. However, in
preparation for the new model, the last quarter witnessed the start of run-out of the 10th
Generation Corolla and re-tooling of the assembly lines requiring plant closures. There were 18
non-production days during the year as against 53 days of plant closure last fiscal year. This
coincidently occurred at a time when in response to the Government’s intervention to strengthen
the value of Pak Rupee we led the auto industry with major reductions in product prices.
Customers lauded the price reduction initiative, and while it created a favorable environment
providing a boost in the market place, the Company was unable to backfill its inventory resulting
in about 1,500 units of lost production and sales.
The market condition is still not completely fine, however Indus Motors plans to increase their
sales in 2015. So far, they are on their target and achieved highest number of sales until May
2015 comparing previous same year’s time. The launch of New model (Yaris / Vitz) will boost
sales as small segment in cars was missing after stopping the production of Daihatsu Coure.
Indus Motors launched Electric car (Prius), which is much appreciated by Government because
of their environment friendly behavior.
Despite so many hurdles and problems, Indus motors keep performing well and gaining trust of
its shareholder. The policy of quality and customer satisfaction making it hot favorite among car
buyers. This is the reason Indus Motor is able to survive and grow in difficult times.
