Access this assignment dropbox to submit your Final Company Report.

This project is where you would have to use your understanding of financial concepts
to analyze a real company. It should be organized like a professional report. Report
should be approximately 10 pages double-spaced using 12pt sized font, including
tables and references.
As a general guideline in doing the above analysis you should focus on the following
aspects:

 Financial Statement Analysis:


Find the financial statements of your selected company and analyze its
financial ratios.

 Valuation:
Cash Flows, growth pattern, any special project that company is heavily
dependent upon.

 Risk and Return:


What is the risk profile of your company? (How much overall risk is there in
this firm? Where is this risk coming from (market, firm, industry or
currency)? How is the risk profile changing? What is the performance
profile of an investment in this company? What return would you have
earned investing in this company's stock? Would you have under or out-
performed the market? How much of the performance can be attributed to
management? How risky is this company's equity? Why? What is its cost of
equity? How risky is this company's debt? What is its cost of debt? What is
this company's current cost of capital?

 Changes in stock prices and returns:


Record opening, closing, high and low prices on a daily basis. Analyze any
major swings in prices whether they are driven by any company specific
event or are market driven. For example, most companies might fall
because of a major issue (think of Greek crisis) or a company might fall
because it was caught offering a bad product (e.g. Lumber Liquidators)
