Here is a summary of the financial and operational metrics for Carrier Airconditioning & Refrigeration Limited for the years 2024 and 2023:
Current Ratio (1.43 in 2024 vs. 1.39 in 2023):
The current ratio improved slightly from 1.39 to 1.43. This ratio measures the company’s ability to meet its short-term liabilities with its short-term assets. A ratio above 1 indicates that the company can cover its short-term obligations.
The small increase shows the company has become marginally more liquid, improving its ability to manage its short-term debt while still maintaining an efficient balance between current assets and liabilities.
Return on Equity (ROE) (30% in 2024 and 2023):
ROE remained steady at 30%. This ratio indicates how efficiently the company is using its shareholders ' equity to generate profits.
A 30% ROE suggests that the company is consistently providing strong returns to its shareholders. Maintaining this high percentage year-over-year is a positive sign of stability and effective capital management.
Inventory Turnover Ratio (3.52 in 2024 vs. 3.89 in 2023):
The inventory turnover ratio decreased from 3.89 to 3.52. This ratio shows how many times the company sold and replaced its inventory over the period.
A decrease suggests that inventory is moving more slowly compared to the previous year, which could imply either an increase in inventory levels or slower sales. The company may need to monitor inventory management closely to prevent potential excess stock or obsolescence issues.
Trade Receivables Turnover Ratio (6.38 in 2024 vs. 6.84 in 2023):
The trade receivables turnover ratio declined from 6.84 to 6.38, indicating that the company is collecting its receivables at a slightly slower pace.
While the ratio is still reasonably high, the slower collection cycle may suggest that customers are taking longer to pay, or that there is more credit being extended to customers. This could affect cash flow and needs to be managed to ensure receivables do not accumulate excessively.
Trade Payables Turnover Ratio (2.42 in 2024 vs. 3.1 in 2023):
The trade payables turnover ratio dropped significantly from 3.1 to 2.42. This ratio measures how quickly the company is paying its suppliers.
A lower ratio suggests that the company is taking longer to settle its payables, which could be a strategy to improve short-term liquidity. While this can help cash flow, it’s important to ensure that supplier relationships are not strained by delayed payments.
Net Capital Turnover Ratio (7.21 in 2024 vs. 9.91 in 2023):
The net capital turnover ratio fell from 9.91 to 7.21. This ratio indicates how efficiently the company uses its working capital to generate revenue.
A decrease suggests that the company’s ability to generate revenue from its working capital has reduced. This could be tied to the slower inventory and receivables turnover, highlighting the need to optimize working capital management.
Net Profit Ratio (6% in 2024 vs. 5% in 2023):
The net profit ratio improved from 5% to 6%. This ratio reflects the company 's ability to convert revenue into profit after all expenses.
The increase indicates better profitability, suggesting that the company is managing its costs more effectively or generating higher revenue growth relative to its expenses.
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) (31% in 2024 and 2023):
ROCE remained constant at 31%. This ratio measures how well the company is generating profits from its capital employed (equity and debt).
A consistent 31% return demonstrates efficient use of capital and suggests that the company is maintaining strong profitability relative to its overall capital base.
