Book excerpt: The updated, real-world guide to interpreting and unpacking GAAP and non-GAAP financial statements In Financial Statement Analysis, 5th Edition, leading investment authority Martin Fridson returns with Fernando Alvarez to provide the analytical framework you need to scrutinize financial statements, whether you’re evaluating a company’s stock price or determining valuations for a merger or acquisition. Rather than taking financial statements at face value, you’ll learn practical and straightforward analytical techniques for uncovering the reality behind the numbers. This fully revised and up-to-date 5th Edition offers fresh information that will help you to evaluate financial statements in today’s volatile markets and uncertain economy. The declining connection between GAAP earnings and stock prices has introduced a need to discriminate between instructive and misleading non-GAAP alternatives. This book integrates the alternatives and provides guidance on understanding the extent to which non-GAAP reports, particularly from US companies, may be biased. Understanding financial statements is an essential skill for business professionals and investors. Most books on the subject proceed from the questionable premise that companies' objective is to present a true picture of their financial condition. A safer assumption is that they seek to minimize the cost of raising capital by portraying themselves in the most favorable light possible. Financial Statement Analysis teaches readers the tricks that companies use to mislead, so readers can more clearly interpret statements. Learn how to read and understand financial statements prepared according to GAAP and non-GAAP standards Compare CFROI, EVA, Valens, and other non-GAAP methodologies to determine how accurate companies’ reports are Improve your business decision making, stock valuations, or merger and acquisition strategy Develop the essential skill of quickly and accurately gathering and assessing information from financial statements of all types Professional analysts, investors, and students will gain valuable knowledge from this updated edition of the popular guide. Filled with real-life examples and expert advice, Financial Statement Analysis, 5th Edition, will help you interpret and unpack financial statements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Berlin, course: Financial Management, language: English, abstract: Executive Summary Financial analysis can be conducted internally or externally to assess a company’s financial condition by analyzing mainly its financial statements. A company’s overall financial condition can be appraised using ratio analysis to examine its key figures in leverage, liquidity, efficiency and profitability. Within this paper, next to the theoretical explanations, the different ratios will be observed for the two retail companies Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (Wal-Mart) and Target Corp. (Target). Due to its large contribution to the US gross domestic product (GDP), the retail industry and its most important companies for the US, Wal-Mart and Target are examined more closely. Wal-Mart is a world-wide operating discount store, which engaged 2.1 million employees in January of 2008 and whose revenues made up about 2.1 % of US GDP. Compared to Wal-Mart, the upscale discounter Target employs 366,000 people within the US. Within this paper the following leverage ratios, which are computed to evaluate a company’s ability to meet financial obligations, will be theoretically explained and then examined more closely for the US discounters Wal-Mart and Target: the debt-ratio, the debt-equity ratio and the times-interest-earned ratio. The computed leverage ratios need to be confronted with the liquidity ratios to investigate, whether a company can also cover its short-term debts in order to survive and to then meet long-term debt obligations. Within this paper the current ratio, the quick ratio and the cash ratio will be regarded more closely for Wal-Mart and Target. How efficiently a company makes usage of the invested current and fixed assets is detected using efficiency ratios, like the sales-to-assets ratio, the days in inventory ratio and the average collection period. Profitability ratios investigate how profitable a company works compared to its competitors analyzing the net profit margin, the return on assets and the return on equity as well as the payout ratio. Finally connections between the profitability and efficiency ratios will be shown using the Dupont system.

Book excerpt: Praise for Financial Statement Analysis A Practitioner's Guide Third Edition "This is an illuminating and insightful tour of financial statements, how they can be used to inform, how they can be used to mislead, and how they can be used to analyze the financial health of a company." -Professor Jay O. Light Harvard Business School "Financial Statement Analysis should be required reading for anyone who puts a dime to work in the securities markets or recommends that others do the same." -Jack L. Rivkin Executive Vice President (retired) Citigroup Investments "Fridson and Alvarez provide a valuable practical guide for understanding, interpreting, and critically assessing financial reports put out by firms.

This book was released on 2017-05-27 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past 20 years, public concerns have grown in response to the apparent rising prevalence of food allergy and related atopic conditions, such as eczema. Although evidence on the true prevalence of food allergy is complicated by insufficient or inconsistent data and studies with variable methodologies, many health care experts who care for patients agree that a real increase in food allergy has occurred and that it is unlikely to be due simply to an increase in awareness and better tools for diagnosis. Many stakeholders are concerned about these increases, including the general public, policy makers, regulatory agencies, the food industry, scientists, clinicians, and especially families of children and young people suffering from food allergy. At the present time, however, despite a mounting body of data on the prevalence, health consequences, and associated costs of food allergy, this chronic disease has not garnered the level of societal attention that it warrants. Moreover, for patients and families at risk, recommendations and guidelines have not been clear about preventing exposure or the onset of reactions or for managing this disease. Finding a Path to Safety in Food Allergy examines critical issues related to food allergy, including the prevalence and severity of food allergy and its impact on affected individuals, families, and communities; and current understanding of food allergy as a disease, and in diagnostics, treatments, prevention, and public policy. This report seeks to: clarify the nature of the disease, its causes, and its current management; highlight gaps in knowledge; encourage the implementation of management tools at many levels and among many stakeholders; and delineate a roadmap to safety for those who have, or are at risk of developing, food allergy, as well as for others in society who are responsible for public health.
