The variability of Pfn and its dependence on the reclassification used

Tax debts must be considered in the calculation of the Net Financial Position? And those towards members? And those to other lenders?

It is now known as the Pfn, compared to EBITDA, has become a key element of assessment by the Banks, however, the calculation approach used is often mechanistic and superficial. The classification of a budget item as “financial debt” it should instead be the daughter of a broader reasoning that favors substance over form. Only in this way can the analysis be defined as realistic and will be useful for the purposes of a correct financial evaluation of the company.

In the video we address the topic with the help of real cases of calculation of Pfn from the statutory budget.

THEEBITDA Margin and the meaning of the relationship Pfn

How to calculate and interpret the ratio Pfn/ EBITDA
How to disentangle the various possible combinations between two central quantities in financial analysis and in bank valuation, without however being misled by the data and their reading.

The definition and calculation ofEBITDA

THEEBITDA it is a quantity that does not appear in the Income Statement in statutory format. To determine its value it is necessary to reclassify this balance sheet format and calculate the difference between Revenues and Operating Costs. But what are these values? The civil law item A5 must be calculated in the calculation of theEBITDA? Is there a single rule applicable to the financial statements of any company or should different criteria be adopted from time to time?

The question is not trivial given that theEBITDA, as well as being a parameter widely used by analysts, it is also an essential component of some indicators used by Banks to assess the creditworthiness of companies.

In the video a real case of how theEBITDA, and therefore the company valuation, depending on the calculation methodology applied.

La Pfn within Leanus schemes

What types of debts must be included in the calculation of the Net Financial Position (Pfn) of a company? Shareholder loans are they always counted? And i overdue tax debts?

How's a sector, or rather, one production chain? It is possible to make one simulation to understand what it is the performance of a portfolio? Simulate the financial needs? This is one of the most frequently asked questions.

The question implies a daily need; that of power process data relating to companies in an aggregate manner. The need may concern the analysis of a market sector, lo SREP (i.e. the assessment that banks are required to carry out to assess the risk of their portfolios), the estimate of incremental credit requirement and much more.

The answer is yes" but unfortunately it is not so easy to get it with a single click; to answer it requires the intervention of an expert. These are the main causes:

  • Some businesses exhibit both the ordinary and consolidated financial statements.
  • Some businesses they do not present the financial statements for an exercise.
  • ....

How to elaborate a BUSINESS PLAN

The business plan can be drawn up in a few moments, but you need to know the assumptions!

To draw up a business plan is necessary know the assumptions on which the projections are based. The Leanus software will take care of the rest, capable of processing the Economic, Patrimonial and Financial Profile, the DSCR extension, the indicators of the Crisis, the financial statement OIC and much more with just one click. An example: In 2020 the company will reduce revenues by 20%, then it will recover 10% in the following years. It will reduce the cost of personnel by 10% in the first year, will make a new investment of 1000.000 euros with a new loan of the same amount.

What will be the economic, equity and financial profile corresponding to the hypotheses entered? It will be in line with the crisis code? What will be the DSCR extension? What will be the rating and how does it vary as the hypotheses vary?
The answers are all in the Leanus Business Plan module. But be careful! Even small changes in the assumptions can significantly change the simulation results. Therefore, the role of the professional returns to be central.

Look at this example!

Multiplier of COST FIXED and new "SIGNALS WEAK"

How much does a company have to grow to be able to sustain € 1.000 in Additional Costs? The answer to the question is provided by Fixed Cost Multiplier, or the ratio between 1 and the Contribution Margin.

Let's take an example.
The bank X Y Z currency the disbursement of a loan which provides for additional financial charges of € 1.000.000 for 5 years. Assuming that the contribution margin of the company SPA (100.000.000 of Revenues) is equal to 5%, it follows that the Fixed cost multiplier is 20.

How much should a company grow, therefore, the company SPA to be able to cover 1.000.000 additional financial charges? The answer is provided by the new indicator: exactly 20.000.000 (+ 20% of Revenues). It is the analyst's job to assess whether the firm X Y Z will be able to increase Revenue by 20%.

The Fixed Cost Multiplier is now available, both for historical data and for the Business Plan, among the Leanus indices. It is also visible in the Home in the "Last Period Evaluation" Box. Always on Home, in the box Eco / Fin summary, are now highlighted anomalous contractions of Revenues, Liquidity and Net Equity and the increase of Financial Debts.

How to reclassify a PIANO of the ACCOUNTS

At best, the financial statements available on the system relate to the financial year closed 5/6 months earlier. Often the latest available budget is even 20 months earlier. Here then is that it becomes necessary to integrate public information with trial balances received directly from the Customer.

This video shows operationally how to upload data (without typing them manually), reclassify them and obtain a complete analysis model for the assessment of the creditworthiness and the economic, patrimonial and financial profile of the company.

Il MARGIN di CONTRIBUTION - what it is and how to use it

The Contribution Margin is the difference between revenues and directly related costs; to obtain the contribution margin is sufficient subtract from Revenues the value of Consumption (Purchases + Change in Inventories) and Variable Costs. If, for example, the Revenues are equal to 1000 and the Contribution Margin is equal to 4%, it means that for every euro of revenues 960 € will be used to cover costs directly related to sales. 40 €, or the Contribution Margin, can instead be used to cover Fixed Costs, Depreciation, Ancillary Management, Financial Management and Taxes. All other conditions being equal, the percentage contribution margin remains unchanged as the revenues change. In our example, if revenues double, the percentage contribution margin remains equal to 4%; the Contribution Margin in absolute value will therefore be equal to € 80.

The Contribution Margin (which depends on the correct reclassification of fixed and variable costs) it is an extremely important measure in the credit assessment processes. The Break-Even value, Operating Leverage and many other measures. It can be used, for example, to understand whether or not a company will be able to maintain its economic equilibrium following a financing operation. In our example, in the case of a loan that provides for annual financial charges of 10, it is necessary to assume that the company must increase its revenues by 25%; In fact, € 250 of additional revenues generate an incremental Contribution Margin to be used to cover financial charges exactly equal to 10.

The weight of the "ALTRI REVENUES", Or when item A5 is to be considered operational

To reclassify a balance sheet means to restore the original accounting structure to a more functional scheme for the analysis we are developing. A frequent example is the placement of item A5 of the statutory income statement. This item refers to revenues and income other than operating income which therefore NOT should contribute to the formation of the operating margin (EBITDA ed EBIT). In some cases, however, such income may refer to assets "related" to those characteristic and "proportional" to them.

In the example we are dealing with one of these cases in which an Italian metallurgical company presents important values ​​of heading A5. These revenues refer to the sale of "metal shavings" which are "scraps" generated by the main processing. The hypothesis applied is that, being this item "Constant" and "proportional" to operating revenues (item A1) it is possible to change its location in the reclassified format used by the analyst, adding it to Revenues (A1). The impact can be substantial on: margins, scores, ratings and many other calculations ...

Budget analysis starts with a good one RECLASSIFICATION

There are various reasons for reclassifying a balance sheet; the statutory scheme, for example, allows the company chart of accounts to be brought back to a standard scheme. If the goal of the reclassification is to one management evaluation of the company , the reclassification logic adopted assumes a critical role. The Ebitda, the score, the financial statement ratios just to give a few examples, are not present in the statutory financial statements and their value strongly depends on the reclassification choices that should be able to best represent, through the numbers, the actual business reality.
Most of the scores are based on the statutory or AQR extension 1 and are not affected by any adjustments made by the analyst. Leanus, on the other hand, updates the assessments, indices and scores in real time according to the reclassification model adopted. The short video shows an example based on real numbers.
