Financial Analysis: Financial Figures and Concepts IP

  Present your findings of data in a table. Add a paragraph that summarizes your results, indicating whether investors would find the financial analysis results of Apix competitive as compared to rivals in the sector. Be sure to include both positive and negative trends in your analysis. 

Respond to the following scenario with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. Be substantive and clear, and use research to reinforce your ideas.

In anticipation of Mary’s request for comparative analysis, it will be useful at this time to do some research. You know that you can obtain the financials of companies within the same sector or Standard Industry Code as Apix Printing (e.g., commercial printing), and that the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Standard Industry 2012 code for Apix Printing is presently 323111. Use the FINC615 Library Guide to search for two other companies in the same industry as Apix Printing.

When you get to work the next day, you see the following e-mail from Mary:

Here is the list of financial ratios you asked for. I need you to explain the computation of each and compute these for Apix’s results for the financial statements you are using for the PowerPoint presentation. Also, compare Apix’s 2-year trend results to that of two other firms in the sector. Indicate how each of Apix’s ratios differ, and indicate whether the two other companies’ ratios or Apix’s ratios are indicative of better performance.

Explain the computation for each of the following, and compute each for Apix and two other companies in the same industry as Apix Printing:

  • Current ratio
  • (Long-term) debt to equity ratio
  • Gross margin percentage
  • Net profit margin percentage
  • Return on equity percentage

With print media in structural decline, Quad/Graphics has been acquiring integrated new media marketing companies, including Periscope, Rise Interactive, and Ivie. The company generates the majority of its revenue domestically. Having nothing to do with the number four, Quad takes its name from Harry Quadracci, who founded the company in 1971. His youngest son Joel runs the company today as Chairman and CEO.

Company Description

Operations Quad's two principal segments are United States Print & Related Services (USP) and International. A small Corporate segment holds unallocated general and administrative expenses. The USP segment provides around 90% of the company's revenue. It consists of Quad's printing operations for retail inserts, publications, catalogs, special interest publications, journals, direct mail, books, directories, in- store marketing and promotion, packaging, newspapers, custom print products, and other commercial and specialty printed products. Also allocated to the USP segment are Quad's marketing services, which include marketing strategy, media planning and placement, data insights, segmentation, analytics, creative services, and digital publishing. USP also manufactures ink. Quad's International segment consists of its printing operations in Europe and Latin America as well as investments in printing operations in Brazil and India. The International segment accounts for the remaining 10% of the company's net sales.

Financial Performance Quad's revenue has been fluctuating for the past five years. It has an overall decline of 15% ($673.7 million). Its net loss has a five-year improvement of 76%. In 2019 the company's revenue dipped by $62.4 million, a 2% change from the previous year. Its net income of $7.9 million in 2018, declined by $164.2 million to a net loss of $156.3 in 2019. Quad's cash on hand grew $9.2 million during 2019, ending the year at $78.7 million. The company's operations generated $155.5 million, offset by $208.1 million used in its investing activities. Financing activities generated $61.8 million.

Geographic Reach Wisconsin-based Quad operates more than 140 facilities in about 15 countries across North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. The company has investments in printing operations in Brazil and India. Quad generates about 90% of its sales from its home market of the US.

Mergers and Acquisitions In early 2020, Quad/Graphics, Inc. acquired Apple Tree Group, a strategic and creative agency specializing in point-of-sale advertising innovation for some of the world's best-known brands. The acquisition strengthens Quad's one-of-a-kind integrated marketing solutions offering that helps brand owners and retailers reduce complexity, enhance process efficiencies and improve marketing spend effectiveness across all media channels.

Sales and Marketing Quad's clients include industry-leading blue chip companies that operate in a wide range of industries and serve both businesses and consumers. It also serves retailers, publishers, direct marketers, and companies from the retail, financial/insurance, healthcare, consumer packaged goods, publishing and direct-to-consumer. Quad's ten largest clients account for about 15% of sales.

Strategy Quad's strategic priorities are as follows: The Company encourages all employees, regardless of job title, to walk in the shoes of clients by putting a priority on listening to clients' needs and challenges, doing what they can to make it easy to work with Quad, and making the client experience enjoyable at every touchpoint. The Company creates more value than the traditional agency approach that operates in silos and is focused on profit by individual media channel. The Company calls this transformation Quad 3.0. With this, Quad's unique integrated marketing platform removes the complexity Quad's clients face when working with multiple agency partners and vendors, eliminating multiple handoffs that compromise both the strategy of programs as well as the speed at which they are executed.
