    Financial Reporting Problem, Part 2: Nike

    When determining the overall financial strength of a company, businesses rely on their current assets to show value. Current assets are defined as assets that can or will be converted into cash quickly. The value of the asset’s will vary and may be used at any time as collateral for loans or other investment business development plans. Current assets will include, of course, cash and cash equivalents, which is the amount of money the company has in its bank accounts including savings bonds, certificates of deposit, and money market funds. Assets must always be calculated as net assets, that is, less any debt owed by the organization. This calculation of current assets can be applied to personal assets as well.…

    Nike's Liquidity Ratio Summary

    Liquidity Ratio – Between 2013 and 2015, Nike’s current ratio declined but their quick ratio inclined. The quick ratio, also known as the “acid test”, is a better indicator of Nike’s liquidity because it removes the amount of inventory from the ratio. Inventory is typically the least liquid of a company’s current assets and in Nike’s perspective, if sales slowdown, the inventory might not be converted to cash as quickly. Also, with the type of inventory that Nike carries, such as sports items and apparel, social and economic influences could affect their inventory liquidity when apparel goes out of style or sports team loss support. Thus, the incline of their quick ratio is a good indicator of Nike’s ability to satisfy their liabilities without…

    Nike Stock Analysis

    “On January 25, 1964 Nike, formerly known as Blue Ribbon Sports was founded by Bill Bowerman and Phillip Knight. It officially became Nike Incorporated on May 30, 1978”(Nike Business). During the late 70s to early 80s Nike’s initial focus was Track and Field but later expanded into various sports such as : soccer, golf, hockey and basketball just to name a few.” In 1980, Nike entered the decade on the success of its Nike Air technology, and at the end of that year Nike completed its initial public offering (IPO) and became a publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange. The reason for going public was typically viewed as a means of raising addition capital without having to borrow, and also increase the company’s profile by having the public be more aware of their company. Also by that time Nike had acquired 50 % market share in the US sports shoe market, which was more than double its closest competitor Adidas”(Nike Business). Other major competitors in the shoe market included Rebook, Converse and Fila, but in 2003 Nike acquired Converse which earned them a greater share of the market. Nike is now the leading apparel company in the world since its expansion into the clothing market. They have a wide range of target audiences but the main focus is on people who are active and enjoy high quality athletic goods, especially footwear. “Nike also believes in the ‘big ad, big athlete’ philosophy to help market their product, and this had proven to be very successful over the years”(Nike Business). Consumers synthesize the Nike brand name with success because of the athletes who typically endorse the product are very successful.…

    Under Armour Ratio Analysis

    When evaluating a stock five types of ratios are considered: firm value ratios, profitability ratios, activity ratios, financial leverage ratios and liquidity ratios. After completing the proper calculations, assessments of the stock can be prepared. Starting with firm value ratios, Under Armour has earned a net worth of $1,259,559,000. The higher the number, the more valuable the firm is on paper, and to Under Armour, this number is fair compared to other competitors in the industry. Another firm value ratio includes book value and Under Armour possess a book value of $1,966,590,000. This number determines the value of the firm based on how much the company would have leftover in assets if it went out of business immediately. The higher the number the more valuable the company is. Profitability ratios include: return on sales, return on assets and gross profit margin. Under Armour has a 0.04 return on sales, which represents how much the company is able to keep as profits for each dollar of sales. The higher the number, the better ran the company is, and a value of 0.04, which is average compared to other competitors in the industry. The gross profit margin determines how much the company is able to keep as profit for each dollar of sales. Under Armour bears a gross profit…

    Sports Direct Financial Situation Analysis and Their New Project Investment in Morocco

    Long ago, when I used to go with my father to the supermarket, I was always asking him to buy me a ball or these fake guns to play with. Sometimes he did buy them for me but sometimes not. I was happy when I had them but when he refused I heard the same reason every time “we do not have the money now but I will buy it for you next time” so I was asking myself: why he was saying to me that he did not have money while he was buying even more expensive goods? And more intriguing, how he would know that he does not have the money now but he will have it next time?…

    Financial Analysis of Carrefour

    Introduction The Carrefour case is a financial analysis case. Carrefour S.A. is one of the world’s largest retailers. During the first half of the 2000s, the company’s share prices steadily declined, despite the fact that the company reported above-average returns on equity. Students are asked to analyze Carrefour’s financial statements and segment data to find explanations for the company’s poor share price performance and to make recommendations for the future. The discussion of the financial analysis is preceded by a discussion of Carrefour’s strategy and accounting. Both the accounting analysis and the financial analysis are affected by Carrefour’s switch from French GAAP reporting to IFRS reporting in 2005 but specialist knowledge of French GAAP and IFRS (and first-time adoption) is not required. Questions for students 1. 2. Analyze Carrefour’s competitive and corporate strategy. What are the key risks of the company’s strategy? Analyze Carrefour’s accounting (including the effects of Carrefour’s switch to IFRS-based financial reporting). Are any adjustments to Carrefour’s financial statements necessary? Analyze Carrefour’s operating management, financial management and investment management during the years 2001 to 2005, making use of both financial statement data and segment data. What are the primary drivers of the company’s poor share price performance? Summarize the key findings of the financial analysis and provide recommendations for improvement to Carrefour’s management. What actions could management take to regain the confidence of Chrystelle Moreau and her fellow investors?…

    Case Analysis of Nike Inc.: Cost of Capital

    Apparently, the issue of Nike’s case is to control and check the calculation cost of capital done by Joanna Cohen who is the assistant of a portfolio manager at NorthPoint Group. But I am willing to tell you that it can be a complex case in which we can doubt about sensitivity analysis done by Kimi Ford (portfolio manager) because her assumptions such as Revenue Growth Rate, COGS / Sales, S &A / Sales, Current Assets / Sales, and Current Liability / Sales have been adopted from previous income statements and balance sheets from 1995 to 2001. Perhaps, we can take new assumptions. Generally, the case issue is to examine if the share price of Nike is undervalue or overvalue and the common stock of Nike Inc should be added to the North Point Group’s Mutual Fund Portfolio or not.…
