Ask PDF's glorified munshi @Armstrong

I can help you but can you ask specific questions?. Also you seem to have a Balance Sheet that combines a lot of items into generic items such as current assets. Showing what goes into Current assets will help in understanding the financial position of the company better.

For Vertical Analysis of the Balance Sheet, you need to divide every item by the total assets and multiply it with 100 to express it as a percentage. Vertical analysis represents all items of the balance sheet as percentage of total assets. Remember that total assets is one of the items so it too would be divided by itself to give a value of 100%


For Vertical Analysis of the Income Statement, you need to divide every item by the Net Sales (or Sales) and multiply it with 100 to express it as a percentage. Vertical analysis represents all items of the income statement as percentage of sales. Remember that Sales is one of the items so it too would be divided by itself to give a value of 100%

Does he want an interpretation then? I perform fundamental analysis for my stock market investments. I wish I had the time to look deeply into these statements. Busy these days.

Is this some academic assignment or some professional-level work?

Seem a simple exercise. I guess he wants how much growth in net worth in those two years, sources of that growth, may be some ratio analysis and a bit of analysis on working capital. Anyways he did not uploaded the income statement, so cannot find the profitability of the company

Can the OP upload all the data (preferably in excel)? I don't seem to see any data in this thread.

You said 78% of the capital structure is made of equity financing. Thus 22% has been financed through debt. This means that the company have very little leverage. A low financial leverage would imply lower risk but also lower returns.

Debt is a double edged sword. Debt has a fixed cost (interest); thus, when operating income increases by 10% for example, the Return on Equity (ROE) increases more than 10% while the Return on Assets will increase by the same 10%. In simple words, this means that share holders will get higher returns.
However, if the operating income starts decreasing, the ROE will suffer more because of the fixed cost of debt. Thus, the higher risk for the shareholders.
------------------
You said that the non-current liabilities have gone down. If these are long term debts, then it may be the case that some debt has been retired. Financial leverage may have gone down from the previous year.

P.S: I cannot give a qualified response without seeing the data.

As the income statement isn't here, do check whether the increase in equity has been due to increase in retained earnings or due to new issue of shares.
