21. Financial Health • We looked at 4 major aspects of financial health of McDonald’s and their competitors • Liquidity • Leverage • Rates of Return • Stock Market Ratios • We also took Altman’s Z-Score into account to see how healthy these companies were during the recession.

22. Liquidity • The ability to meet current obligations • We took into account the Current Ratio and the Quick Ratio. • Current Ratio = Current Assets/Current Liabilities. • Quick Ratio = (cash + marketable securities + net receivables) / Current Liabilities

23. Current Ratio in 2008

24. Quick Ratio for 2008 • *If the current ratio is above 1, and the quick ratio is below 1, then a manager may need to look at the valuation of inventory or the inventory turnover.

25. Leverage • The ratios between debt and equity which provides information about bankruptcy. • We will look at the Debt-to Asset Ratio and the Debt-to-Equity Ratio • Debt-to-Asset = Total Liabilities/Total Assets • Debt-to-Equity = Long-term Debt/Shareholder’s Equity

26. Meaning of Ratios • Debt-to-Asset shows whether assets are financed through equity, value under 1, or financed through debt, a value above 1. • Above 1, might mean trouble if the company is under pressure. • Debt-to-Equity shows whether a company can generate new funds from the capital market. • A higher ratio means a company is thought to have smaller new-financing capacity and will have trouble finding future financing funding.

27. Debt-to-Asset for 2008

28. Debt-to-Equity for 2008 • SONC had a -11.24 ratio largely due a buy back of treasury stock, because they thought their stock was undervalued.

29. Altman’s Z-Score • The score analyzes the future success or failure of a company. • Z-Score = • A x 3.3 + B x 0.99 + C x 0.6 + D x 1.2 + E x 1.4 • A= EBIT/Total Assets • B= Net Sales/Total Assets • C= Market Value of Equity/Total Liabilities • D= Working Capital/Total Assets • E= Retained Earnings/Total Assets

30. Evaluation of Score • Score < 1.8 indicates bankruptcy is high • Score > 1.8 but < 2.7 bankruptcy is fair • Score >2.7 but < 3.0 bankruptcy is possible, but not likely, • Score > 3.0 indicates bankruptcy is low and company is in good health. • McDonalds Score was 3.04 for 2008.

31. Return on Assests • Return on assets (ROA) is an indicator of how profitable a company is relative to its total assets.  • ROA gives companies and organizations an idea as to how efficient their management is at using their assets to create earnings. • In order to calculate return on assets, you must divide a company's annual earnings by its total assets; ROA is displayed as a percentage.

32. Return on Assets • ROA tells you what earnings were produced from invested capital or assets. • ROA for public companies can vary substantially and will be highly dependent on the industry. • This is why when using ROA as a comparative measure, it is best to compare it against a company's previous ROA numbers or the ROA of a similar company

33. Return on Assets 2008 ROA 5 year Average MacDonald’s 15.2% 10.5% Sonic 10.6% 10.3% Burger King 7.10% 3.20% Jack in the Box 7.60%7.40% Wendy’s -10.3% -4.50%

34. Return on Assets • This shows that if MacDonald’s net income was generated from their total value of assets, the return would be right around 15 cents per dollar. It is also a great indicator of how efficient MacDonald’s is at using their assets to generate income. • On the other side however, Wendy’s would show a lose of 10 cents on the dollar if their net income is based off their total value of assets. Sonic would have a gain of 10 cents on the dollar while both Burger King and Jack in the Box would have 7 cents gain on the dollar.

35. Return on Equity • The amount of net income returned as a percentage of shareholders equity. •  Return on equity measures a corporation's profitability by showing how much profit a company makes with the money shareholders have invested. • ROE is expressed as a percentage and calculated by dividing net income by shareholders' equity. • ROE is useful for comparing the profitability of a company to that of other firms in the same industry.

36. Return on Equity • These numbers tell us how much profit is being produced from money that investors have provided to these companies. • 15-20% is usually considered exceptional. For every dollar of income 20 cents can be credited to the investor’s capital. • This ratio is often considered the most important. The main goal of any company is to maximize shareholder wealth. • This ratio tells you and your investors how much money you are making off their money.

37. Return on Equity 2008 ROE 5 year Average MacDonald’s 32.2% 20.6% Sonic 44.1% 36.3% Burger King 20.9% 13.8% Jack in the Box 23.0%19.3% Wendy’s -55.9% -41.3%

38. Return on Equity • According to the information, Sonic and MacDonald’s are leading the way by making 44 cents and 32 cents for every investor’s dollar respectively. • Jack in the box makes roughly 23 cents per dollar while Burger King makes 20 cents. All four of these are considered to be outstanding. • Wendy’s is not fairing very well. For every dollar an investor puts into Wendy’s, they are losing almost 56 cents in return. That is not what a company wants to see if they are looking for potential investors.

39. Stock Market Ratios • The three most common ratios used are: • Price-Earnings Ratio (P/E Ratio) • Earnings per Share (EPS) • Dividend-Yield Ratio

40. Price-Earnings Ratio (P/E) • The P/E ratio (price to earnings) of a stock is a measure of the price paid for a specific share, which is relative to the annual net income or profit which is earned by the company per share • P/E ratios are segmented between high and low • A higher P/E ratio means that investors are paying more money for each unit of net income • Therefore, the stock is more expensive if compared to another stock with a lower P/E ratio

41. McDonald’s P/E Ratio • McDonald’s has a current P/E ratio of 15.1. However, the company’s P/E ratio for fiscal year end 2008 was 28.0. • either the stock is overvalued or the company's earnings have increased since the last earnings figure was published

42. Sonic Co. P/E Ratio • Sonic Corporation has a current P/E ratio of 12.2. The company’s P/E ratio for fiscal year 2008 was 22.5 • An end of year P/E ratio between 17-25 will usually indicate a growth stock, with earnings expected to increase substantially in the near future

43. Burger King & Jack in the Box’s P/E Ratios • The two company’s current P/E ratios are 17.3 and 13.5 and their end of year ratios were 22.1 and 21.2 respectively • Investors are hoping that both of these stocks will be growth stocks that will increase substantially in the near future

44. Wendy’s/Arby’s P/E Ratios • At the end of fiscal year 2008, this company’s P/E ratio was 37.3 • A company whose shares have an extremely high P/E ratio have high expected future growth in overall earnings, or the stock may be subject to a “speculative bubble” • These stocks have the potential to trade in high volumes at prices that are considerably different than the intrinsic values

45. Earnings Per Share (EPS) • Earnings per share are the earnings which are returned on the initial investment amount. This is calculated by: • EPS = (net income - preferred dividends) /common shares outstanding

46. Fast Food Industry’s EPS

47. What Does This Mean? • McDonald’s has reported an average annual increase in its EPS since 1998 • This makes McDonald’s more appealing to an investor because the basis of the EPS ratio is the earnings which are returned on the initial investment

48. McDonald’s EPS Over the Last Decade

49. Dividend-Yield Ratio • The dividend yield on a company stock is the company’s annual dividend divided by price per share

50. How Does This Affect McDonald’s? • McDonald’s has been consistently increasing its dividends for the past thirty years • From 1998, up until 2007, this dividend growth stock has delivered an annual average total return of 11% to its shareholders • Over the past ten years, the annual dividend payments have increased by an average of almost 25% annually, which is much higher than the before mentioned growth in EPS • This 25% growth in dividends translates into McDonald’s dividend payment doubling nearly every three years
