Financial Analysis of
GSK and Abbott
Current Liabilities

Interpretation:
If we look at the common size analysis of GSK Balance Sheet, we come to know that there is a
decline in fixed assets out of total assets from 2012 to 2013. However, there is no increase in
long term deposit of the company from 2012 to 2013. The reason could be no further saving /
deposits from previous to existing year. If we look at the inventory account (stock and spares,
the percentage out of total assets is same and the company managed to keep it at the same
level, making sure that inventory does not pile up.
There is only a slight increase in percentage of investment from 2012 to 2013. However, cash
and bank balances have been seen to be in a declining state. The reserves have also gone down
from 2012 to 2013. Almost, same share capital as 2012 was issued / raised.
There is no major increase in long term liabilities from 2012 to 2013. However, the accounts
payables have increased greatly over the year.
Now, if we look at the common size analysis of Abbott Balance Sheet, we come to know that
there is a big decline in fixed assets out of total assets from 2012 to 2013. Also, there is
decrease in long term deposit of the company from 2012 to 2013. The reason could be further
saving / deposits from previous to existing year. If we look at the inventory account (stock and
spares, the percentage out of total assets has decreased. This shows that the company is well
managing to keep it at the smaller level, making sure that inventory does not pile up.
Moreover, cash and bank balances have been seen to be in a rising state. The reserves have
also gone up from 2012 to 2013. Furthermore, same share capital as 2012 was issued / raised.
There is no major increase in long term liabilities from 2012 to 2013. However, the accounts
payables have decreased greatly over the year.
The common size analysis of both Abbott and GSK Profit & Loss Account / Income Statement is
given below:
Interpretation:
If we look at the common size analysis of GSK Income statement, we come to know that COGS
has increased majorly from 2012 to 2013. This is the reason that gross profit has declined over
the year. When the overall cost increases, the profit decreases.
Due to high expenses of selling, marketing and distribution, we observe that there is a decrease
in operating profit as well whereas all other expenses were almost at the same level as in 2012.
The company should shift its focus towards decreasing selling and marketing expenses in order
to make sure that operating profit increases by a higher amount.
The company has paid interest in the form of financial charges higher than previous year and
that is why we get low profit after interest, as compared to 2012. Summing it all up, the EAT /
profit after tax is less than 2012 which is not a favorable picture in terms of profit maximization
by company.
Now, if we look at the common size analysis of Abbott Income statement, we come to know
that COGS has increased majorly from 2012 to 2013. This is the reason that gross profit has
declined over the year. When the overall cost increases, the profit decreases.
Due to slightly high expenses of selling but higher other income, we observe that there is an
increase in operating profit as well whereas all other expenses were almost at the same level as
in 2012. The company should shift its focus more towards decreasing selling expenses in order
to make sure that operating profit increases more.
The company has paid interest in the form of financial charges which are almost same for both
years and that is why we get high profit after interest, as compared to 2012. Summing it all up,
the EAT / profit after tax is more than 2012 which is highly favorable picture in terms of profit
maximization by company.

If we look at the Index analysis of GSK Pakistan Balance Sheet, we come to know that there is a
%age decrease in long term loans to employees as compared to base year. However, there is an
overall slight increase in non-current assets. There are also an increased percentage of current
assets by almost 10%. This can be due to an increase in trade deposits and prepayments.
However, there is an increase in cash and bank balance. This cash could have been used by
company in investments over the year.
If we look at share capital and reserves, we see that there is a decrease in that in 2013.
However, if we look at the liabilities side, we get to know that long term liabilities have
increased and current liabilities have also increased. This is due to an increase in accounts
payables over the time. The company might not have been able to pay off the payables timely.
Likewise, there is an overall increase in liabilities as compared to base year.
Now, if we look at the Index analysis of Abbott Pakistan Balance Sheet, we come to know that
there is a %age decrease in long term loans and advances as compared to base year. However,
there is an overall large increase in non-current assets. There are also an increased percentage
of current assets by almost 19.7%. This can be due to an increase in trade deposits and
prepayments. However, there is an increase in cash and bank balance. This cash could have
been used by company in investments over the year.
If we look at share capital and reserves, we see that there is an increase in that in 2013.
However, if we look at the liabilities side, we get to know that current liabilities have decreased.
This is due to a decrease in accounts payables over the time. The company might have been
able to pay off the payables timely. Likewise, there is an overall decrease in non-current
liabilities as compared to base year.
The Index analysis of both Abbott and GSK Pakistan Income Statement is given below:
Interpretation
If we look at the Index Analysis of GSK Income Statement, we get to know that the net sales of
the company have increased with a growth of 9% in 2013. The sales were lower in base year
2012. The underlying growth in pharmaceutical segment was 9.4%. So, GSK Pakistan has been
able to meet up the industry benchmark / average in terms of sales growth. However, there is
also an increase in cost of sales from 2012 to 2013.
The expenses have increased overall, with only decrease in other operating expenses and that
is the reason we have lower operating profit as compared to base year. The company should
start thinking about decreasing the operational costs and expensed to increase the operating
profit.
The financial charges have also increased drastically over the time and that is why we have
lower profit after interest and taxes. Although the sales were higher than base year, but profit
after tax was lower due to high expenses and other financial costs.
Now, if we look at the Index Analysis of Abbott Income Statement, we get to know that the net
sales of the company have increased with a growth of 13.2% in 2013. The sales were lower in
base year 2012. However, there is also an increase in cost of sales from 2012 to 2013.
The expenses have increased overall. So, the company should start thinking about decreasing
the operational costs and expensed to increase the operating profit.
The financial charges have also increased slightly over the time and that is why we have
comparatively higher profit after interest and taxes. This is because the sales were higher than
base year, thus the profit after tax was higher.

Interpretation:
We can see that Current Ratio of GSK Pakistan has decreased from 2012 to 2013. But there is
increase in Abbott current ratio value. It means that Abbott is comparatively more able to
satisfy or pay off its current liabilities out of its current assets. As a rule, the current ratio with
2:1 (or) more is considered as satisfactory position of the company. The current liabilities in the
form of trade and other payables increased majorly in 2013 due to which the ratio declined for
both firms. This picture of current ratio for Abbott is thus satisfactory. So, GSK should focus
more on cutting current liabilities.

Interpretation:
Quick Ratios of GSK Pakistan have decreased, whereas that of Abbott has increased. So, it
shows an unsatisfactory picture for GSK because its quick ratio for 2013 is even lower than 1
and it means that company does not have many liquid assets and has high percentage of
inventory. The company is not in a good position to pay off current liabilities using its most
liquid assets. If the current liability is Rs.1, the company would not be able to pay it only from
its quick assets. The reason is decreased cash and bank balance and increased inventory from
previous year. The low quick ratio indicates a potential problem in GSKs inventory account
which must be considered by company.

Interpretation:
The debt to equity ratios for both Abbott and GSK Pakistan are almost constant over the period
of 2 years and shows the percentage of debt in the overall capital. As shown in the above
figure, the percentage of debts which finances both companies is not very large and somehow
it shows a favorable picture in the sense that both firms are financed mostly by shareholders
capital and not by debt financing.
It shows the relative importance of long term debt to long term financing of the firm.

Interpretation:
Total capitalization ratio of GSK Pakistan is constant over the period of two years and stands at
0.1:1, while that of Abbott has decreased slightly from 2012 to 2013. It means that out of total
capital structure which consists of long term debt and shareholders equity, GSK has long term
debt financing of only around 10%, whereas that of Abbott is around 0.3% only. It means that
GSK total capital structure consists majorly of shareholders equity, whereas Abbott total
capital structure consists slightly of shareholders equity.

Interpretation:
The interest coverage ratio of GSK Pakistan for 2013 is 12.4 times which is very low as
compared to last year 2012. On the other hand, the ratio of Abbott Pakistan for 2013 is 1248.03
times which is quite low as compared to last year 2012. This decrease in interest coverage for
GSK is due to two reasons: The Company has very low EBIT as compared to previous year and
very high interest charges. So, comparatively Abbott is in a good position but still it needs to
increase its cover interest.

Interpretation:
The receivable turnover ratio for GSK Pakistan is showing a better picture as compared to
previous year. The company can collect its receivables 72 times in a year and after every 5 days.
On the other hand, Abbott is showing a much better picture as compared to it. The company
can collect its receivables 217.2 times in a year and after every 1.6 days only. This is a very good
picture because it is usually recommended for a company to decrease the time for its
receivables / collections in order to make sure that enough cash is available for business
operations. Thus, Abbott is showing a comparatively consistent performance which is good.

Interpretation:
GSK Pakistan is showing a good picture of Payable turnover ratio as compared to previous year.
The company now only pays 10 times in year, to its suppliers and makes payment after every 35
days which is very good. On the other hand, Abbott now only pays 9.8 times in year, to its
suppliers, but makes payment after every 37 days which is comparatively less good. It is usually
recommended for companies to delay the payment cycle and GSK Pakistan is performing
comparatively well in this regard.

Interpretation:
If we see the Inventory Turnover in days, we see that the performance is not very good. GSK
Pakistan is converting its inventory into sales after every 122 days, which is a delayed period as
compared to the Abbotts Inventory turnover in days of 2013 where company is moving
Institute of Business Administration | 36
Financial Management MBAE2014-2016
inventory into sales after every 111 days. Though the difference is not very large, but GSK
should try improving and minimizing the difference in number of days. The inventory account
should not pile up and it should be made sure that company is effectively converting its stock /
inventory into sales in a short period of time.
It indicates the overall effectiveness of the company in utilizing its assets to generate sales.

Interpretation:
The total asset turnover ratio for GSK Pakistan is constant as compared to previous year and
stands at 1.4:1. While that of Abbott has decreased. This shows that GSK is comparatively using
its total assets effectively in generating sales and it somehow shows a favorable picture for the
company in terms of its asset utilization and efficiency.

Interpretation:
GSK Pakistan is showing a negative trend in terms of Gross Profit Margin, whereas Abbott is
showing a positive trend. We can see that Gross Profit %age has decreased as compared to
2012 and GSK has not been able to generate much gross profit out of its total sales. This is not a
favorable picture and this declining trend in GP Margin may be due to the increased cost of
sales, which made the gross profit to go down. The company should consider cutting the cost of
its sales in order to generate higher gross profit.

Interpretation:
The Net Profit Margin of GSK Pakistan is not showing a good picture and the ratio has
decreased as compared to previous year. While, the ratio has increased in case of Abbott. This
decline in net profit margin for GSK over the year is due to increased expenses as already
shown in Income statement. The company should focus on cutting down its expenses in order
to increase the net profit after expensed and taxes.

Interpretation:
The ROI %age for GSK Pakistan has decreased over the year, while it has increased for Abbott.
This is a major decline for GSK if we compare the figure with ROI of previous figure and does
not show a good picture of companys performance in asset utilization and efficiency. The
company has not been able to produce considerable amount of profit using its assets and
should start focusing this area.
Return on Equity:
It indicates the profitability to the shareholders of the company (after all expenses and taxes).

Interpretation:
The return on equity ratio has also decreased for both Abbott and GSK and this is not a good
picture. The company purpose is to maximize the profit and shareholders wealth but in 2013,
GSK Pakistan has not been able to achieve this properly. Same is the case for Abbott. The
shareholders might not be getting higher return on their investment in capital.
Market Ratios:
Market Ratios are concerned with the return on investment for shareholders, and with the
relationship between return and the value of an investment in companys shares.

Interpretation:
EPS has decreased for GSK Pakistan but increased for Abbott. This is due to increased net
income after tax in 2013 of Abbott due to its comparatively less high expensed and financial
costs. So, GSK should consider increasing the net income so that there is high EPS for its
shareholders.

Interpretation:
The DPS for GSK has decreased in 2013 while it has remained constant for Abbott. This is again
not a good picture for GSK. Dividends are a form of profit distribution to the shareholder.
Having a growing dividend per share can be a sign that the company's management believes
that the growth can be sustained.

There is a declining trend in net capital of GSK Pakistan from 2012 to 2013. On the other hand,
there is a rising trend in net capital of Abbott Pakistan from 2012 to 2013. This shows that the
total assets of Abbott have increased with the ratio of decrease in total liabilities over the year.
So, GSK should start focusing this area as well.

Interpretation:
GSK Pakistan has low dividend yield ratio with an increase in market price of share. The
dividend yield ratio of Abbott is decreasing but not abruptly like GSK. This is not a
comparatively favorable picture for GSK because now it is paying a very low dividend %age with
high market price which is not convenient for a shareholder.
This ratio shows how much investors are willing to pay against market price.

Interpretation:
The high Price earning ratio of GSK Pakistan in 2013 indicates positive future performance and
investors may be willing to pay more for companys shares. On the other hand, the Abbott P/E
ratio is also higher but not as much as of GSK. So, it shows it is advancing with less pace
comparatively.
The findings and summary of financial analysis of GSK Pakistan for the years 2012 and 2013 are
given below:
Conclusion
After looking at all financial results of GSK and Abbott Pakistan for 2012 and 2013, we arrive at
the conclusion that there is a negative trend in performance of GSK but there are indicators of
potential growth in future as well. SO, it is better for GSK to decrease the expenses and costs
moving forward, so that its overall profit increases than that of Abbott. GSK Pakistan is
considered as one of the leading companies in pharmaceutical industry of Pakistan and it is
expected that company performance will improve in future.
