1.1 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Financial perfoemance is a subjective measure of how well a firm can use assets from its
primary mode of business and generate revenues.The term is also used as a general measure
of a firms overall financial health over a given period. Analysts and investors use financial
performance to compare similar firms across the same industry or to compare industries or
sectors in aggregate.The financial performance tells investors about the general well being of
a firm.Its a snapshot of its economic health and the job its management is doing. A key
document in reporting corporate financial performance is form 10-k, which all public
companies are required to publish annually.
Financial statement used in evaluating overall financial paerformance include the balance
sheet, the income statement, and the statement of cash flows. Financial performance
indicators are ouantifiable metrics used to measure how well a company is doing. No single
measure should be used to define the financial performance of a firm. There are many
stakeholders in a company, including trade creditors, bondholders, investors, employees, and
management. Each group has an interest in tracking the financial performance of a
company.The financial performance identifies how well a company generates revenues and
manages its assets, liabilities, and the financial interests of its stakeholders and stockholders.
Monetary execution is a passionate extent of how well a firm can use assets from its
fundamental technique for business and produce earnings.The term is in like manner used as
a general extent of relationships all around monetary prosperity over a given
period.Examiners and monetary benefactors use nonetary execution to break down near firms
across a comparative industry or to check out organizations or regions in total.Monetary
execution illuminates monetary patrons concerning the general thriving of a firm. It’s a
review of its financial prosperity and the work its organization is doing. A critical file in
enumerating corporate monetary execution s sructure 10-k, which all open associations
areexpected to convey every year. Monetary declarations used in surveying overall monetary
execution join the resource report, the compensation clarification, and the statement of cash
streams. Monetary execution pointers are quantifiable estimations used to evaluate how well
an association is getting along. No single mesure should be used to describe the monetary
exhibition of a firm. Recording monetary execution a critical recording announcing corporate

potections and trade commission requires all open organizations to record and distribute this
yearly achieve.
Its motivation is to give partners exact and solid information and data that give an
outline of the organizations monetary wellbeing. Free book keepers review the data in a 10-k,
and friends the executives sign it and other divulgence reports. Thus, the 10-k addresses the
most complete wellspring of data on monetary execution made ccessible to financial backers
annually. Observing your monetary presentation in like manner makesmore conviction and
confidence in choosi both short and long stretch decisions. This consequently prompts a
superior business and speedier improvement rate. Its similarly allows you to outmaneuver
and outbox competitors who flop in such way.

2. Quick Ratio
Quick Ratio establishes a relationship between quick or liquid assets and current
liabilities. An asset is liquid if it can be converted into cash immediately or reasonable soon
without a loss of value. Cash is the most liquid asset, other assets that are considered to be
relatively liquid asset and included in quick assets are debtors, bills receivables and
marketable securities. Inventories are considered to be less liquid. Inventories normally
require some time for realizing into cash. The quick ratio is found out by dividing quick
assets by current liabilities. Generally a quick ratio of 1:1 is considered adequate.
Quick Assets
Quick Ratio=
Current Liabilities
3. Cash Ratio
Cash is the most liquid asset, a financial analyst may examine Cash Ratio and its
equivalent current liabilities. Cash and Bank balances and short term marketable securities
are the most liquid assets of a firm. Trade investment or marketable securities is equivalent of
cash. Therefore, they may be included in the computation of cash ratio.
If the company carries a small amount of cash, there is nothing to be worried about
the lack of cash it the company has reserves borrowing power. Cash ratio is perhaps the most
stringent measure of liquidity. Cash Ratio is calculated as cash and marketable securities by
current liabilities.
Cash+ Marketable Securities
Cash Ratio=
Current Liabilities
B. Profitability Ratios
1. Gross Profit Ratio
Gross profit ratio establishes the relationship between Gross profit and sales. It
indicates the efficiency of production or trading operation. A high gross profit ratio is a good
management as it implies that cost of production is relatively low.

Gross Profit Ratio= ×100
Sales
C. Leverage Ratios
1. Debt Ratio
Several debt ratios may be used to analyze the long term solvency of a firm. The firm
may be interested in knowing the proportion of the interest bearing debt in the capital
structure. It may, therefore, compute debt ratio by dividing total debt by capital employed on
net assets. Total debt will include short term and long term borrowings from financial
institutions, debentures and bonds, deferred payment arrangements for buying equipments,
bank borrowings, public deposits and any other interest bearing loan. Capital employed will
include
total debt and net worth.
Total Debt
Debt Ratio=
Total Debt + Net Worth

4. Proprietary Ratio
The total shareholders’s fund is compared with the total tangible assets of the
company. This ratio indicates the general financial strength of concern. It is a test of the
soundness of financial structure of the concern. The ratio is great significance to creditors
since it enables them to find out the proportion of shareholders funds in the total investment
of business.

4. Inventory Turnover Ratio
Inventory turnover ratio indicated the efficiency of firm in producing and selling its
products. It is calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold by average inventory. It measures
how fast the inventory is moving through the firm and generating sales. The Inventory
turnover ratio reflects the efficiency of inventory management.

Quicker buyer merchandise (FMCG) or shopper bundled products are items that are sold
rapidly and for moderately minimal price. Models incorporate non tough products like
bundled food sources, refreshments, toiletries, over the counter medications and numerous
other consumables. Interestingly, strong merchandise or significant apparatuses, for example
kitchen machines are for the most part supplanted over a time of a while. Many quick buyer
merchandise have a time frame of realistic usability, either because of high shopper interest
or in light of the fact that the item falls a part quickly. Some FMCGs, like meat, leafy foods,
dairy items, and heated merchandise, are profoundly transient. Different merchandise, like
pre bundled food varieties,sodas, chocolate,confections, toiletries ,and cleaning items, has
high turnover rates. The deals are in some cases affected by occasions and seasons.
Bundling is basic for FMCGs. The coordinations and dispersion frame works regularly
require auxiliary and tertiary bundeling to augment productivity. The unit pack or essential
bundle is basic for item security and time span of usability and futher more gives data and
deals motivators to buyers. Despite the fact that overall revenue made on FMCG items is
moderately little they are for the most part sold in enormous amounts hence, the aggregate
benefit on such items can be generous. FMCG is an exemplary instance of low edge and high
volume business. The Indian FMCG area is the fourth biggest area in the economy with an
absolute market size of US$ more than 13 billion. This area has developed at a peace of
11% some what recently and is required to proceed with the pattern upwards with a projected
14.5 percent up to 2022.
India has an impressively solid MNC presence, which is supported by a grounded dispersion
network set up, contests among the coordinated and sloppy sections and low operational
expense.
3. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
3.1 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
The FMCG industry in India has gained in popularity over the last 3-4 years, mainly
because of changing lifestyles and eating habits of people. The present study focus on

different sectors. The present study is only considering top three FMCG companies based on
their market capitalization.
3.2 NEED FOR THE STUDY
In any of the organization financial performance plays an important role. Under or over
estimation of performance affects the profitability and liquidity of the company financial
position. For Example some Industries operating cycle will be more days, so they need to
improve financial performance and estimation is very difficult. So it is very much needed to
analyze the financial performance in those companies.
