EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Being reduced to a group of two from the initial three we were tasked to conduct and report a
financial analysis for satisfying the essential requirements of the course, Advanced Cooperate
Finance, FIN 926. The report constitutes a cross sectional analysis of three companies over a
period of four years. The said task involves calculating and then comparing to the industry
averages, the financial ratios and weighted average cost of capital using CAPM and BETA,
with the later calculated by regression and slope analysis. Last but not the least, conclusions
drawn by logical reasoning using the aforementioned data provide an investors point of view
when analyzing an industry .The companies we chose for our analysis are Valeant
Pharmaceutical, West Pharmaceutical and Teva Pharmaceutical by using SWOT Analysis,
ratio analysis and all the other financial Analysis including Capital Asset Pricing Model and
Weighted Average Cost of capital from the Balance sheet, Income Statement and Cash flow
statement from the year 2011 to 2014. In some circumstances current market prices have
been used for example when calculating WACC. This study will determine each company’s
current consolidated and divisional financial position. Through DOW Jones index for
Pharmaceuticals, the Industry Average has been taken to compare financial to perform
industry wide comparison. We as a group have tried our best to perform complete analysis
with in the given constraints. The calculations have been performed on Excel where there isfull length analysis performed starting from Balance sheet income statement and cash flow
statements with all ratios and beta , capm calculation. If at any time while going throught the

Note: Please refer to excel file and table number 1 for diagram when required for proper understanding. Val refers to Valeant, WST refers to company West and TV
denotes Teva Pharmaceuticals.
Explanation:
This diagram indicates the level of liquidity that each company has on hand to meet its
short-term liabilities compared to industry average. Valeant Company has a stable current
ratio over the analyzed period of 1,50, which is slightly higher than industry average.
However, Teva Company has a fluctuant current ratio below the industry average.
Additionally, West Company has a high current ratio compared to industry average,
which means that it is able to meet its short-term liabilities.

Explaination:
The quick ratio is a tool to measure the ability of a company to meet its short-term
liabilities with its most liquid assets (cash and cash equivalents…). According to the
results above, Valeant has a decreasing quick ratio from 3 in 2011 to less than 0,5 in2014. West Company has a fluctuant ratio moving from more than 2,5 in 2011 to less
than 1,5 in 2013. This can be explained by the investments that the companies made in
the last years. Concerning Teva Company, it is going hand in hand with the industry
average that indicates that it is able to meet its short-term payables.

ACCOUNT RECEIVABLES TO WORKING CAPITAL
EXPLAINATION:
The working capital ratio indicates the ability of the firm to pay its short-term liabilities.
In other words, it represents the proportion of current assets that it needs to pay its current
liabilities. Valeant has a ratio greater than 1, however, below the industry average. This
means that the company can face some problems meeting its short-term liabilities in the
future. Same thing can be said for West Company, which has a ratio below 1. On the
other hand, Teva Company has a working capital ratio greater than 2, which means that
current assets are 2x greater than current liabilities of the firm.

company used to generate sales over the period. Valeant and West companies have a ratio
below industry average, which is above 2. Besides, Teva Company is performing better
than the industry average with a ratio above 6 in 2013 and equal to 2 in 2014. This means
that the company is able to generate sales using its working capital efficiently.

Explanation:
A sale to working capital ratio is a measurement of how the firm is using its working
capital to generate sales. All companies have a ratio below the industry average except
Teva Company in 2013, which had a ratio of 24. The results can be explained by a
decision to keep more inventory on hand, or a management decision to give customers a
higher credit line, which can lead to the generation of more sales in future.

Explanation:
This ratio indicates to the efficiency of the company generating sales compared to its
investment in fixed assets. Valeant has an increasing ratio going from 2 in 2011 to 20 in
2014. This can be explained by the effective acquisition made by the company last 3
years. However, Teva and West companies have a mean ratio of 2,5 over the period,
which is below the industry average of 16. This means that both companies are not using
effectively their fixed assets in the generation of revenues.

Explaination
The percent profit margin to sales is the same as profit margin to sales but the only difference is this that ittells you by what exact percentage revenue the company is generating profit. This analysis is good as it
helps decide the break-even percentage point. Valeant is the company because its low operations and sales
have negative value where all others are showing great promise for growth.

Revenue per share ratio; also known as the sales per share ratio, is useful tool to measure
the company’s effort to generate revenue compared to its share price. It is known that the
higher the ratio the better it is. From the graph, we can see that Valeant’s revenue per

Explanation:
This represents the amount of money the company generated compared to the equity
holders investment over a period of time. Valeant Company experienced a decrease in its
equity in 2012 and 2013, which can explain the negative return on equity percentage in
this specific period. Concerning Teva and West companies, their return on equity ratio
has an increasing trend over the period going from 5% in 2011 for Teva to 15% in 2014.
This shows the return the company delivered to its shareholders over the period. In
addition, this increasing trend can attract more demand and thus, an increase in the share
price.

Explanation:
It shows the efficiency of the company to generate profit after paying all the variable
costs such as salaries, raw materials used in the production process. According to the
graph above, the industry average is 30%. The three companies have an operating margin
less than industry average. This means that the proportion of sales revenues left after
paying all the charges is small. Teva Company has an increasing operating margin over
the period going from 7% in 2011 to 20% in 2014 as shown in the graph. For Valeant
Company, the operating margin was affected by the equity loss incurred in 2012 and
2013. Leaving the company with a negative operating margin of -8%.

portion of profitability allocated to the outstanding shares. From the graph above, we can
see that Valeant Company has a negative EPS in 2012 and 2013 of -0,3 and -2,7
respectively which can be explained by the loss in their share price due to its pricing
practices and huge borrowing amounts. On the other hand, Teva Company has an
increasing earning per share ratio over the period, which shows us the increasing
profitability of the company compared to its outstanding shares.

2014. Even though, the industry average is much higher than equity multiplier of the
three companies reaching 9,5x.

We used Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) to calculate the required rate of return.
The formula is:
Cost of Equity = Risk-Free Rate of Return + Beta of Asset * (Expected Return of the
Market - Risk-Free Rate of Return). Cost of Debt is calculated by using D/D+E and
E/D+E respectively.
Beta Calculation Methodology:
We have used regression analysis where individual companies stock price data was taken
for the past ten years than regression analysis was applied using s and p 500 data to reach
to the required result. All three years data was chosen individually and same analysis was
applied as shown in the excel file. Following table shows the analysis of beta using both
slope and regression analysis. We can easily see from the the analysis that all the
companies are secure when it comes to risk with Teva the least risker and West the most
risker of all.

CONCLUSION:
After performing the in-depth analysis of the three companies we have come to the
conclusion that all companies are to their own limitations like capital structure and otherconstraints are performing well. All of them are growing at a consistent rate. Where some
of the key ratios show good potential for growth one but not that promising for the other
company.. If one company has upside trend in one year the other company has lost its
value for one reason or another. The reason I chose Valeant pharmaceutical was itself
being the new Enron and showing exponential growth over the past few years. Analysis
is important but cannot be the deciding factor in deciding whether to invest or not as there
are many forces playing at the same time that can influence and change the face of your
investment.
