What do you mean by shareholder’s equity analysis? What
are the main ratios to be discussed under this segment,
explain them in detail.
Shareholders equity
somewhat reflects a company’s dividend policy, because it reflects a
company’s decision to either reinvest profits or pay them out to
shareholders
Part of Shareholders’ Equity
• Preferred shares
Preference shares, more commonly referred to as preferred stock, are
shares of a company’s stock with dividends that are paid out to
shareholders before common stock dividends are issued. If the company
enters bankruptcy, preferred stockholders are entitled to be paid from
company assets before common stockholders. Most preference shares
have a fixed dividend, while common stocks generally do not.
• Retained earnings:
Retained earnings are the profits that a company has earned to date,
less any dividends or other distributions paid to investors. This amount is
adjusted whenever there is an entry to the accounting records that
impacts a revenue or expense account. A large retained earnings
balance implies a financially healthy organization.
• Treasury shares:
Treasury stock, or reacquired stock, is a portion of previously issued,
outstanding shares of stock which a company has repurchased or
bought back from shareholders. These reacquired shares are then held
by the company for its own disposition.

• Dividend Yield
It is a financial ratio that measures the annual value of dividends
received relative to the market value per share of a security.
The dividend yield is used by investors to show how their investment in
stock is generating either cash flows in the form of dividends or
increases in asset value by stock appreciation.

dividends received relative to the market value per share of a security.
• Price Earnings ratio (P/E ratio)
The price earnings ratio, often called the P/E ratio or price to earnings
ratio, is a market prospect ratio that calculates the market value of a
stock relative to its earnings by comparing the market price per share by
the earnings per share. In other words, the price earnings ratio shows
what the market is willing to pay for a stock based on its current
earnings.

company’s stock price and earnings per share (EPS). It is a popular ratio
that gives investors a better sense of the value of the company.
• Dividend cover
Dividend Coverage Ratio states the number of times an organization is
capable of paying dividends to shareholders from the profits earned
during an accounting period
Dividend cover, also commonly known as dividend coverage, is the ratio
of company's earnings over the dividend paid to shareholders,
calculated as net profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by
total ordinary dividend..
Dividend Coverage Ratio = Net income / Dividend declared
It is calculated by dividing net income available for common stock-
holders by the dividends paid to the common stock-holders. Dividend
coverage ratio is inverse of dividend payout ratio.
Formula
Dividend Cover Ratio= Profit after tax - Dividend paid on
Irredeemable Preference Shares/ Dividend paid to Ordinary
Shareholders
• Retention ratio
The retention ratio is the proportion of earnings kept back in the
business as retained earnings. The retention ratio refers to the
percentage of net income that is retained to grow the business, rather
than being paid out as dividends. It is the opposite of the payout ratio,
which measures the percentage of profit paid out to shareholders as
dividends. The retention ratio is also called the plowback ratio.

a company's current market price to its book value. Book value is also
the net asset value of a company calculated as total assets minus
intangible assets (patents, goodwill) and liabilities. The market value of a
company is its share price multiplied by the number of outstanding
shares.

and the total share price of the company.
