DOL DFL DCL

DOL depends on fixed operating cost, Shinepukur Ceramics level of operating risk throughout the three years has a decreasing trend. It looks optimistic because their gross profit also rises during this period. The DFL of Shinepukur Ceramics was also decreasing throughout the three years. So, DCL also shows a decreasing trend. However when looking at the industry. Shinepukur Ceramics Degree of risk (DFL, DOL, DCL) is lower than the industry indicating a safer position for the company. 2.Market Share : Item Sales Total Asset Shinepukur Ceramic Industry 2,296,011,556.00 3,654,812,937.00 5,125,726,997 6,915,521,520 Market Share 60.80% 74.11%

Apparently, it seems that Shinepukur Ceramics has a large market share, as it is a bigger company in Ceramic industry. But for our analysis, we took Monno ceramics, Shinepukur and fu wang to build a representation of our industry. So, these findings are subject to specification. 3.RATIO ANALYSIS:

5.CCC Ratios and NWC The Shinepukur Ceramics Inventory turnover ratio is showing an increasing trend, indicating increase in efficiency in inventory management, which led to a decreasing trend in DIH. But DSO is increasing indicating more lax credit terms. Here, CCC has a decreasing trend, which is a good sign. But even though for ceramic industry CCC is very high, Shinpukurs CCC is higher than the industry . The companys NWC for 2010 is tk 171,556,305. 6.FATOR, TATOR and % of FA

Shinepukur Ceramics has a decresing trend in the percentage of FA in their balance sheet. It shows that the companys risk level is decreasing over time. But compared to industry, they have higher percentage of FA. Both FATOR AND TATOR of Shinepukur are increasing over time, but it is still lower than industry average. Emphasis on this point is important.

8.PROFITABILITY RATIOS: Shinpukur ceramics has an increasing trend in all profitability ratios. They are also higher than the industry average. This indicates a bright future for the company. But in recent years only rarely cash dividend is paid. There is a trend of giving stock dividends instead of cash dividends in the industry. It can be assumed cash or liquidity is highly important. 9.MARKET RATIOS:

Shinepukurs market to BV shows an increasing trend and it is higher than the industry. When we focus on EPS the company seems to be moving towards a better future, as it increased from 2008 to 2010. But in 2010, EPS is lower than industry. Risk Analysis And Other components of the Project: 10.CALCULATING WACC The WACC of Shinepukur is 24.02%, whereas the WACC of Industry average is 26.17%. Therefore, the cost of capital is lower than the competitors. Shinepukur Ceramics is not succeeding in maintaining a fair balance between debt and equity financing. It can further minimize its WACC by taking in more debt. But this will increase the Companys DFL. This high Cost of capital is due to the Extreme fluctuations in the DSE. [ REFER TO APPENDIX FOR WACC CALCULATIONS:]

11.BETA OR MARKET RISK Shinepukur Ceramics has a Beta (?) of 0.0966 ; calculated on a daily basis via the price taken from 2008 to 2010. The beta indicates that their stock is 0.097 times volatile than the overall market. If the overall market risk increases by 1 unit the companys risk will rise by 0.097 units. Again, the Standard Deviation of Shinepukur Ceramics daily returns is 3.67% which may be risky for the investors because if stock price decline they will severely suffer. The average market return is 0.24% (daily basis) and 56.91% (yearly basis). On the other hand Shinepukur ceramics has 23.41% (yearly basis) average return. [REFER TO APPENDIX FOR BETA OUTPUT:]

12.FORECASTED IS & BS : From the forecasted IS & BS we get the picture that Shinepukur Ceramics profitability is going to decrease for the year of 2011 and FCF will also be low that year. But the following years both profitability and FCF will increase. All forecasted statements require discretionary finance. All of this will be financed by debt. So, debt is increased in financial statements. Also from Forecasted IS, average sales growth is 12.01%. [REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FORECASTED STATEMENTS:] 13.DETERMINING THE INTRINSIC VALUE OF STOCK: To determine the intrinsic value of the stock, we calculated the future expected FCF for the next 3 years. For 2011, 2012 and 2013 the projected FCF are 334,131,053; 387,949,022 & 448,029,024 Tk respectively. Now assuming the final FCF to be constant and a perpetuity, we discount all FCF at WACC to get value of firm. That minus mkt value of debt gives us equity. We divide it to get the intrinsic value of stock. It gives us Tk 8.61/share. But at December 9, the mkt price is 31.6 Tk and at end of 31st December, 2010 mkt price per share was 109. This overvaluation of the stock is caused by severe stock market fluctuations. [REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FCF AND OTHER CALCULATIONS:]

14.DIVIDEND POLICY: Shinepukur gave a cash dividend at the year 2008. After that they have continued to issue stock dividends. It appears they now prefer stock dividends rather than to use up cash. So, they may like to use most of the cash for internal financing.

FU-Wang Ceramics LTD Done by: 0920307030

Company Overview: Fu-Wang Ceramics LEVERAGE ANALYSIS:

Year DOL DFL DCL 2008 Fu-Wang Industry 1.89 1.32 -2.96 2.67 -5.57 3.53 2009 Fu-Wang Industry 2.19 1.30 -24.85 2.35 -54.47 3.07 2010 Fu-Wang Industry 2.12 1.31 1.73 2.02 3.67 2.64

DOL depends on fixed operating cost, Fu-Wang Ceramics level of operating risk throughout the three years has a increasing trend. However, their gross profit also rises during this period recovering from the operating loss in 2008. The DFL of Fu-Wang Ceramics was also decreasing in first 2 years in a negative way & further rose in 3rd year but in positive way. So, DCL also shows a similar trend. However when looking at the industry. Fu-Wang Ceramics Degree of risk (DFL, DOL, and DCL) is much higher than the industry indicating a much riskier position for the company. Market Share: Item Sales Total Asset Fuwang Industry Market Ceramics Share 3654812937 11.71% 428,081,147 12.55% 867,904,980 6915521520

So we can see Fu-Wang Ceramics has a smaller market share in compare to other the two companies, as it is a relatively new company in Ceramic industry. RATIO ANALYSIS: LIQUIDITY RATIOS:

Comparison with industry(2010 based) More Current liability depended

Fu-Wang Ceramics is more depended on current liability as source financing its CA & FA as we can see NWC is negative all over the period. So, there is a high liquidity pressures & it may come under severe liquidity crisis if they come under sudden need of huge cash. In terms to liquidity ratios, Fu-Wang Ceramics is much illiquid than the industry. Moreover, its cash ratio is less than the industry standards as well.

In the efficiency position, Fu-Wang Ceramics position was having significant improvement over the period along with it cash conversion cycle. But, Their Average Collection Period (Days Sales Outstanding) is much higher compare to their Payable Deferral Period in 2009/10. CCC Ratios and NWC The Fu-Wang Ceramics Inventory turnover ratio is showing an increasing trend, indicating increase in efficiency in inventory management, which led to a decreasing trend in DIH. But DSO is increasing indicating more lax credit terms. Here, CCC has a significant decreasing trend with lower CCC than the industry in 2010. FATOR, TATOR and % of FA

Fu-Wang Ceramics has a slow decreasing trend in the percentage of FA in their balance sheet. It shows that the companys risk level is decreasing over time & that is equal to industry average. Fu-Wangs FATOR &TATOR are increasing gradually, but it is still much lower than industry average. Emphasis on this point is important. DEBT MANAGEMENT: Fu-Wangs total debt ratio varied to 48-49% over the years. Its TIE ratio is increasing over the years and higher than industry average, which indicates greater financial strength. Use of interest bearing debt by Fu-Wangs is increasing & slightly higher than industry.

Fu-Wangs market to BV shows an increasing trend and closer to the industry. When we focus on EPS the company seems to be recovering & improving, as it increased from 2008 to 2010. But in 2008-09, EPS is too low than industry. Risk Analysis & Other components of the Project: CALCULATING WACC The WACC of Fu-Wang is 24.76%, whereas the WACC of Industry average is 26.17%. Therefore, the cost of capital is lower than the competitors. Fu-Wang Ceramics was

successful in maintaining a fair balance between debt and equity financing. (REFER TO APPENDIX FOR WACC CALCULATIONS) BETA OR MARKET RISK Fu-Wang Ceramics has a Beta () of 0.1001; calculated on a daily basis via the price taken from 2008 to 2010. The Standard Deviation of Fu-Wang Ceramics daily returns is 7%. The average market return is 0.16% (daily basis) and 57% (yearly basis). (REFER TO APPENDIX FOR BETA OUTPUT) FORECASTED Income Statement & Balance Sheet: All forecasted statements require discretionary finance. All of this will be financed by debt. So, debt is increased in financial statements. Average sales growth is 14% is calculated from the last three years geometric mean. (REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FORECASTED STATEMENTS) DETERMINING THE INTRINSIC VALUE OF STOCK: To determine the intrinsic value of the stock, we calculated the future expected FCF for the next 3 years. For 2011, 2012 and 2013 the projected FCF are 63,587,688 41,170,320 & 258,743,611 Tk respectively. Now assuming the final FCF to be constant and perpetuity, we discount all FCF at WACC (24.76%) to get value of firm. We get Equity value by deducting market value of debt from the firm value. We divide it to get the intrinsic value of stock. It gives us Tk 86.12/share. But the mkt closing price of December, 2010 was 570.75 prices per share. This overvaluation of the stock is caused by severe stock market fluctuations & inefficiency. (REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FCF AND OTHER CALCULATIONS) DIVIDEND POLICY: Fu-Wang gave a cash dividend at the year 2008 & no further dividend declared.

DOL DFL DCL

DOL depends on fixed operating cost, MONNO Ceramics level of operating risk throughout the three years has a increasing trend. It looks pessimistic because their gross profit also decreases during this period. The DFL of MONNO Ceramics fluctuates heavily throughout the three years. So, DCL also shows a fluctuation trend. However when looking at the industry. MONNO Ceramics Degree of risk (DFL, DOL, DCL) was higher than the industry in 2009 but 2010 it came lower than industry indicating a safer position for the company.

Though MONNOs market to BV shows an increasing trend, but it is higher than the industry. When we focus on EPS, it seems the company is not in right track, as it decrease from 2008 to 2010. Risk Analysis And Other components of the Project: CALCULATING WACC The WACC of MONNO is 18.57%, whereas the WACC of Industry average is 26.17%. Therefore, the cost of capital is lower than the competitors. MONNO Ceramics is not succeeding in maintaining a fair balance between debt and equity financing. It can further minimize its WACC by taking in more debt. But this will increase the Companys DFL. This high Cost of capital is due to the Extreme fluctuations in the DSE .[ REFER TO APPENDIX FOR WACC CALCULATIONS:] BETA OR MARKET RISK MONNO Ceramics has a Beta (?) of 0.25044 ; calculated on a daily basis via the price taken from 2008 to 2010. The beta indicates that their stock is 0.25 times volatile than the overall market. If the overall market risk increases by 1 unit the companys risk will rise by 0.25044 units. Again, the Standard Deviation of MONNO Ceramics daily returns is 5.52% which may be risky for the investors because if stock price decline they will severely suffer.The

average market return is 0.24% (daily basis) and 56.91% (yearly basis). On the other hand MONNO ceramics has 26.49% (yearly basis) average return.[REFER TO APPENDIX FOR BETA OUTPUT:] FORECASTED IS & BS: From the forecasted IS & BS we get the picture that MONNO Ceramics profitability is going to increase for the year of 2011 and FCF will also be high that year. All forecasted statements require discretionary finance. All of this will be financed by debt. So, debt is increased in financial statements. Also from Forecasted IS, average sales growth is 4.12%.[REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FORECASTED STATEMENTS:] DETERMINING THE INTRINSIC VALUE OF STOCK: To determine the intrinsic value of the stock, we calculated the future expected FCF for the next 3 years. For 2011, 2012 and 2013 the projected FCF are 164209765, 133777703, 221,597,180 Tk respectively. Now assuming the final FCF to be constant and perpetuity, we discount all FCF at WACC to get value of firm. That minus mkt value of debt gives us equity. We divide it to get the intrinsic value of stock. It gives us Tk 420.82/share. But at end of 31st December, 2010 mkt price per share was 899.50. This overvaluation of the stock is caused by severe stock market fluctuations. [REFER TO APPENDIX FOR FCF AND OTHER CALCULATIONS:] DIVIDEND POLICY: MONNO gave a cash dividend at the year 2008 and 2009. After that they have continued to issue stock dividends. It appears they now prefer stock dividends rather than to use up cash. So, they may like to use most of the cash for internal financing.
