STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF DIVERSIFIED AND UNDIVERSIFIED COMPANY
INTRODUCTION:
I have chosen two companies of which one is highly diversified and another
which is undiversified. Undiversified company which follows only one kind of business
which is BRITANNIA and another company which started their business by selling
tobacco and now they are in various business which is ITC. I have taken Itc sunfeast
to compare between diversified and undiversified company.
I have analyzed ratios of both the company and projected their cash flow and initial
investment and found out net present value and commented on these parameters toshow the difference between diversified and undiversified company.
Due to unavailability of separate annual report for ITC Sunfeast, I have taken whole Itc
annual report.
COMPANYS PROFILE:
ITC This company at first started their business by producing tobacco and now
they are one of the highly diversified company with many product lines like Hotels,Papers, Agri-business, Stationery, Fmcg etc. This company increased their net profit
from 2673.07 crores in 2005 to 4825.74 crores in 2009. It always shows an increasing
trend. Because this company is highly diversified they can reduce their risks by reducing
the loss of one component by increasing the profit of the other components.
BRITANNIA It is an biscuit company was started in year 1892 in a nondescript
house in Calcutta with an initial investment of Rs.295. Now the net profit of the company
stands up to 232.52 crores. Its average sales growth rate is 18.25% were as industry
growth rate of Fmcg is 15%. It has a high market value per share of 1650 rupees. Even
though they do not diversify their business they are doing very huge business In biscuit.Its a very old company and has created a huge brand loyalty.

INFERENCE:
From the analysis made in table#1, its clear that both diversified and undiversified company is strongenough to meet its obligation. Both the companies have enough resources to pay its bill over the next
12 months. 1.5:1 is said to be strong and good current ratio. Undiversified company Britannia were
unable to meet more than 1.5:1 for the year 2009 and 2007 as Itc dose for all the three years.

INFERENCE:
From table#2 we can find that both the companies will not be able to make the immediately. Both the
companies will not be in position to make any urgent payment immediately. It cannot honor it
commitment instantly, so the company has to depend upon help from the financial situation in the way
of overdraft etc quiet frequently. Since strong quick ratio is said to have a ratio of 1:1 both the
companies is not in a good position in term of quick ratio.

Inference:
From table#4 we can find that an highly diversified company Itc has better Roi than undiversified
Britannia, this is because they have more product since they are diversified so it is possible for them to
create more roi from different investment were as even though Britannia engaged in producing one
product line even they are able to show a better performance in term of Return on investment.

INFERENCE:
From table#5 we can find that both the companies have very less leverage, so they would have very less
tax benefits of debt capital for Itc the debt ratio remains more or less same for the past three years
while for Britannia in the year 2008 there was a jump on debt component from 1% to 14% but in again
in 2009 it has come down to 3%.

Average cash flow growth rate 15.10%
In table#10 average cash flow is found by finding out the cash flow growth rate from the year 2006-2009
and average cash flow is found out by dividing the total cash flow growth rate by total number of years
which is 15.10% this average cash flow growth rate is found to project cash flow for next five years and
for each year cash inflow is calculated by adding depreciation to the PAT.

In table#14 net investment of a diversified company Itc is found out by using the fixed asset ratio of
2009 which is 1.42 and by using the projected sales for 2010 which is 26735.01 these figures are
calculated by using the formulae Fixed asset ratio of2009 = projected sales of asset for 2010 divided by
fixed asset and it has been fount that net initial investment for the project has 18827.48 crores.

In table#15 net initial investments for Britannia for the year 2010 is found in the same way as we found
out for Itc in table#14 and it was calculated that the net initial investment is 611.25 crores.
Calculation ofCoc (Cost of capital):
Formulae used - Kd(1-t)*D/V+Ke*S/V
Calculation Kd (Cost of debt) = Total interest paid / Total debt
For calculating Kd value, year 2008 is taken in to account for both the companies, since 2009
gives very abnormal value and also average ofKd for the year 2005-2009 gives very high value, because
if we take average value or 2009 value Kd will be high than Ke and also for 2009 interest is to high
compared to the debt. Hence 2008 value is considered as shown in table# 16.
Kd Table # 16

Calculation of Ke (Cost of equity) formulae used = D0(1+G)/P0)+G. Dps / Mps formulae is not used since
it gives very less value for both the companies which is shown in table#17.

For calculating Coc formulae used is Kd(1-t)*D/V+Ke*S/V. were Kd is cost of debt. T is tax which is taken
as 30% which is .3. D is the total debt and S is the net worth and Total value (V) = D+S and for
calculating Ke G is calculated which is the growth rate, D0 which is dividend at the end of the year
P0 which is current market price of the share.

Table # 22 clearly shows that both the companies project will make a profitable growth in future since
both the companies show a positive figure. But when compared to the value of Npv we can see thatdiversified company Itc have high figure compared to Britannia an undiversified company and also they
have many advantage compared to Britannia, because since it is diversified company they can reduce
the risk, and also if there are any loss in one particular sector they can offset with another sector thus how
they minimize the risks. This shows that the diversified company is in better position as indicated by the
higher Npv.

In Table # 23 Npv is calculated by using pay back period method for both the companies with using
projected cash inflows to find out in how many years they are able to recover their initial investment and it
-

is found out that one of the company Itc were able to recover their initial investment between 3rd
and 4th
year and another company Britannia which can able to recover in between 2nd
and 3rd
year. Which means
both the company itc and Britannia will recover their initial investment of 18827.48 and 611.25 in between
3rd
- 4th
year and 2nd
3rd
year respectively. To find the exact time of both the companies when they
recover their initial investment it is calculated as shown in Table#24.
Table# 24 - Pay back Period
ITC BRITANNIA
25075.49 - 17429.23 = 7646.26 785.99-497.45 = 288.54
76426.26/25075.49 = 0.3049 288.54/785.99 = 0.3671
0.3049*12 = 3.6591 0.3671*12 = 4.4052
3.6591 is rounded to = 4 months 4.4052 is rounded to = 4 months
Pay back period =3 year and 4months Pay back period =
2 year and 4months
In table# 24 exact pay back period is found out for both the companies. Since one of the company Itc
felled in between 3rd
and 4th
year to recover the initial investment, different between the cash flow of 4th
year and 3rd
year were taken and divided by the cash flow of 4th
year and multiplied by 12 to find exact
payback period for both the companies and thus it gave a payback period of 3year and 4 months to a
diversified company Itc and 2 year and 4 months to a undiversified company Britannia. Comparing pay
back period of both the company Britannia is better than Itc since they recover their initial investment in 2
years and 4 months were as for Itc the recovery period is 3 years and 4 months.

Since calculation for pay back period did not give accurate information since it his calculated from cash
inflow, discounted pay back period method is used using Pv amount which is calculated @16% for Itc and
13% for Britannia as shown in the table 20 & 21 using that Pv discounted pay back perios is calculated as
shown in the table# 25 for which Itc resulted in recovering the initial investment in between 4th
and 5th

year and Britannia in between 2rd and 3rd
year. To find the exact amount it is calculated as the same way
it his computed for payback period method as shown in the table #24. For computing the exact period it is
computed as shown in the below table# 26.
Table# 26 - Discounted Pay back Period
ITC BRITANNIA
21821.201-17091.009 = 4730.19 613.60-413.63 = 199.97
4730.19/21821.20 = 0.21677 199.97/613.60 = 0.3258
0.21677*12 = 2.6 0.3258*12 = 3.9096
2.6 is rounded to = 3 months 3.9096 is rounded to = 4 months
Discounted Pay back period =4 year and 3months
Discounted Pay backperiod =
2 year and 4months
From the above table# 26 we can find that Britannia is still better than Itc because their recovery period
under discounted pay back period method is only 2 years and 4 months were as Itc takes 4 years and 3
months to recover the initial investment.
Conclusion:
From the above computation of Initial investment, Npv and finding exact period to recover the
initial investment using pay back period method and discounted pay back period method we can infer that
Itc a diversified business plays a better performance than Britannia. Even though Britannia recover the
initial investment very soon in both the method than Itc does, but Itcs initial investment is extremely
higher than the undiversified company Britannia. For Itc company the initial investment is about 18827.48
Crores were as Britannia had initial investment of just 611.25 crores. Since Britannia is a undiversified
company their initial investment is too less compared to Itc. Comparing by Npv method Itcs Npv is very
high compared to Britannia, Itcs Npv is 2453.72 Crores were as Britannias Npv is just 389.11 crores. Itc
have high figure compared to Britannia an undiversified company and also they have many advantage
compared to Britannia, because since it is diversified company they can reduce the risk, and also if there
are any loss in one particular sector they can offset with another sector thus how they minimize the risks.This shows that the diversified company is in better position as indicated by the higher Npv.
