Financial Statement Analysis
• Financial statement analysis can be
used to discover mispriced securities.
• Financial accounting data are widely
available, but
– Accounting earnings and economic
earnings are not always the same thing!

Accounting Versus Economic Earnings
• Economic earnings
– Sustainable cash flow that can be paid
to stockholders without impairing
productive capacity of the firm
• Accounting earnings
– Affected by conventions regarding the
valuation of assets

Profitability Measures
• ROE measures profitability for
contributors of equity capital.
– After-tax profit/book value of equity
• ROA measures profitability for all
contributors of capital.
– EBIT/total assets

Past vs. Future ROE
• ROE is a key determinant of earnings
growth.
• Past profitability does not guarantee future
profitability.
• Security values are based on future
profits.
• Expectations of future dividends determine
today’s stock value.

Financial Leverage and ROE
• ROE can differ from ROA because of
leverage.
• Leverage makes ROE more volatile.
• Let t=tax rate and r=interest rate, then:
Debt
ROE = (1 − t )ROA + (ROA − r )
Equity

Financial Leverage and ROE
Debt
ROE = (1 − t )ROA + (ROA − r )
Equity
• If there is no debt or ROA = r, ROE will
simply equal ROA(1 - t).
• If ROA > r, the firm earns more than it pays
out to creditors and ROE increases.
• If ROA < r, ROE will decline as a function
of the debt-to-equity ratio.

Decomposition of ROE
DuPont Method
Net Profit Pretax Profit EBIT Sales Assets
ROE = x x x x
Pretax Profit EBIT Sales Assets Equity
(1) x (2) x (3) x (4) x (5)
Tax Interest
x x Margin x Turnover x Leverage
Burden Burden

19-14
Decomposition of ROE
ROA =EBIT/Sales x Sales/Assets
= margin x turnover
• Margin and turnover are unaffected by
leverage.
• ROA reflects soundness of firm’s
operations, regardless of how they are
financed.
INVESTMENTS | BODIE, KANE, MARCUS

19-15
Decomposition of ROE
ROE=Tax burden X ROA X Compound leverage
factor
• Tax burden is not affected by leverage.
• Compound leverage factor= Interest
burden X Leverage

Choosing a Benchmark
• Compare the company’s ratios across
time.
• Compare ratios of firms in the same
industry.
• Cross-industry comparisons can be
misleading.

Economic Value Added
• EVA is the difference between return on
assets (ROA) and the opportunity cost of
capital (k), multiplied by the capital
invested in the firm.
• EVA is also called residual income
• If ROA > k, value is added to the firm.

Example 19.4 Wal-Mart
• In 2009, Wal-Mart’s cost of capital was
5.9%. Its ROA was 9.6% and its capital
base was $115 billion.
• Wal-Mart’s EVA =
(0.096-0.059) x $115 billion = $4.25 billion

Comparability Problems
• Accounting Differences
– Inventory Valuation
– Depreciation
• Inflation and Interest Expense
• Fair Value Accounting
• Quality of Earnings
• International Accounting Conventions

International Accounting Differences
• Reserves – many other countries allow
more flexibility in use of reserves
• Depreciation – US allows separate tax
and reporting presentations
• Intangibles – treatment varies widely
