describes ISS in terms of service offerings, organisation, geography, etc. The destination

described in Route 101 is a Facility Services company with revenue of DKK 101 billion.

ISS will continue to work towards this goal following the vision: Lead Facility Services

globally.

y To further operationalise this vision, ISS in the spring of 2007 introduced the ISS

Strategy Plan 2007-2009.

y ISS strategy plan 2007-2009

The ISS Strategy Plan 2007-2009 is not a new direction for the Group. The strategy of

transforming ISS into the leading global Facility Services company remains the same.

The ISS Strategy Plan 2007-2009 further details the initiatives needed to fulfil the vision.

y - Facility Services

ISS continues the process of transforming itself into a Facility Services company. In

response to customer demand, ISS has established operations in security services through

acquisitions in several geographies. To further strengthen its strategic focus on

developing these services, Security, including access control and guarding services, hasbeen added as a fifth pillar in ISSs IFS house as illustrated above. This means that ISS

wants to offer a wide range of services supported by the five pillars of the IFS House:

y > Cleaning

> Office Support

> Property Services


6/22

> Catering

> Security

y Service solutions are offered to the customer as single services, multi services or

Integrated Facility Services (IFS).

y In a single service outsourcing the customer buys one service solution from ISS, e.g.

outsourcing of cleaning or property services. The customer thereby enjoys the benefits ofoutsourcing to ISS and can capitalise on service know-how and best practices, labour

management and handling of all HR issues, procurement benefits, reduced financial

administration of the outsourced service area, increased operational fiexibility, etc.

y In a multi service outsourcing the customer achieves the same benefits as single service

outsourcing only for each outsourced service area as well as benefits of service

integration where possible.

y In an Integrated Facility Services solution ISS takes over all or most of the service

functions at the customers premises, provided the services are within the pillars of the

IFS house. The customer thereby receives the full potential of single service outsourcing

and benefits from an ISS on-site management solution that exploits the synergy potential,and as a result provides the customer with an integrated and cost effective solution.

y Through the acquisitions of broadranged service companies in Germany, Switzerland and

the United Kingdom, ISS is able to provide management of Facility Services. The

acquired capabilities have provided an approach to clients where ISS is able to offer

management of services, delivered either through subcontracting or through own service

provisions depending on the preference of the client.

y An IFS implementation team was established in 2006 with the primary focus of

accelerating the IFS implementation in selected countries. The team consists of four

experienced specialists with an overlying mission of providing operational support in

winning, bidding, transitioning and operating the first IFS contract within a country. Theprioritised countries in 2006 were Spain, Belgium and Switzerland. In 2007, the

prioritised countries are Germany, the Netherlands and Australia.

y - Single service excellence

The foundation for being the leading Facility Services company is a continuous focus on

delivering service excellence in every service area. Going forward, ISS will continue to

focus heavily on developing single service excellence and spreading it throughout the

organisation.

y - Operational efficiency

ISS will seek to maintain and enhance operational efficiency by retaining its focus on

three well-established and prioritised operational objectives for its local managers: (i)cash flow; (ii) operating margin; and (iii) profitable organic growth. In addition, ISS will

focus on reducing the financial leverage on a multiple basis.

y Cash cow

ISSs first objective is to continue to maintain a relatively high rate of cash conversion

primarily by operating in a manner that optimises working capital. Through this

approach, ISS expects to continue to generate a positive free cash flow.


7/22

y Operating margin

ISSs second objective is to maintain or improve its operating margin, which increased

from 5.1% in 2000 to 5.8% in 2006. ISS will seek to generate operational efficiencies by

increasing its local market positions and operational densities, as well as through the

implementation of company-wide best practices.

y Profitable organic growthISSs third objective is to continue to leverage its international market position and

service offering in order to increase its local market positions and drive organic growth.

To do this, ISS established a Sales Excellence Centre in 2006 to create sales systems and

to promote benchmarking and the sharing of best practices between countries. ISS

continues to work with a wide range of initiatives to: (i) attract new customers; (ii)

increase customer retention rates, including through the establishment of dedicated key

account teams; and (iii) cross-sell related services, such as pest control and washroom

services, to existing customers. Additionally, ISS has established a market presence and

operating platforms in selected high-growth economies, particularly in Latin America and

Asia.y Reduce financial leverage

Following the acquisition of ISS A/S by FS Funding A/S, ISS is determined also to seek

to reduce, on a multiple basis, the financial leverage of the FS Funding Group, which

increased as a result of the acquisition. This is expected to be achieved primarily through

growth in ISSs operating profit through a continued focus on cash flow, operating

margin, organic growth and acquisitions. However, as a result of this growth strategy,

ISS expects to incur additional debt in the future. The extent and timing of the FS

Funding Groups deleveraging on a multiple basis will, however, depend upon, among

other things, ISSs cash flow generation and the scale and timing of payments related to

its future acquisition activities, which may temporarily increase its leverage on a multiplebasis in terms of net debt to pro forma adjusted EBITDA.

y - Growth

A wide range of initiatives will underpin organic growth spanning from further

investment in the growth economies of the world via an enhanced sales force and training

to new customer retention initiatives.

y ISS expects to continue to make acquisitions to facilitate its strategy of increasing local

scale and broadening its local service offerings. Since the beginning of 2000, ISS has

acquired and integrated more than 500 businesses, more than 450 of which were

acquisitions of relatively small businesses with annual revenues of less than DKK 100

million (EUR 13.4 million). The two largest acquisitions to date have been Abilis inFrance in 1999 and Tempo in Australia in 2006 which on the date of the respective

acquisitions had estimated annual revenue of approximately DKK 5.2 billion and

approximately DKK 2.9 billion. Apart from Tempo, the two largest acquisitions in 2006

were Edelweiss in Switzerland (estimated annual revenue of DKK 0.7 billion) and

DEBEOS in Germany (estimated annual revenue of DKK 0.5 billion). ISS expects to

continue focusing primarily on smaller acquisitions, which it believes will reduce the

risks relating to individual acquisitions and enable it to leverage the experience of local


8/22

management teams throughout its countries of operation. ISS cannot provide any

assurance, however, that it will not pursue larger acquisitions in the future.

y It is important to emphasize that acquisition driven revenue growth will vary widely from

year to year, among other things depending on opportunities, organisational capability,

financial resources, etc. and thus acquisition speed could deviate significantly from the

range mentioned above.y - Geography

ISS intends to increasingly focus on the BRIC-countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China)

as well as other growth markets, particularly located in Eastern Europe, Latin America

and Asia.

y In 2006, ISS established country operations in Mexico and the Philippines and in January

2007, ISS set up operations in Taiwan. Furthermore, the presence in Turkey was

significantly expanded in 2006 through an acquisition. ISS is currently analysing the US

market in preparation for a possible US entry.

y - Organisation

As a foundation for the strategy plan, ISS is transforming its organisation to allow it tofocus on accelerating the service development. Head office resources focusing

specifically on China and India have been appointed. Organisational resources have also

been added for Eastern Europe, Russia, Australia and Latin America in order to support

the development of these geographies.

y Training and education is key to the strategy plan. ISS will invest even more in these

areas in order to continue to accelerate its transformation towards Integrated Facility

Services.

y - Branding

As a part of the transformation to a global Facility Services company, ISS will invest

further in strengthening the ISS brand across the world.y - Systems and methodologies

ISS will invest further in systems and methodologies. A Corporate Solution, i.e. a

standardised IT-business solution, has been further developed and implemented in a

number of countries. Shared initiatives in a number of areas such as planning tools,

facility service management systems, etc. have been developed and will be implemented

going forward.

y - Acquisitions

ISS considers acquisitions an integral part of the business model. Acquisitions are the

Groups primary means of investing in the business, to develop and refine the business

concept and to continuously improve its competitive strength in an unconsolidatedindustry structure.

y The acquisition process is aimed at creating value for shareholders. The acquisition

process is anchored with local management teams enabling them to take advantage of and

leverage the local presence. The local management team screens the market for potential

targets and builds a pipeline of qualified opportunities. The management teams stay

involved throughout the acquisition process from the very beginning of target


9/22

identification to the final step of the integration in order to make sure that responsibility

and focus on the execution is maintained.

y ISSs mergers and acquisitions department manages the acquisition process, primarily

with respect to valuation of the acquisition and negotiation of the material acquisition

agreements, to the extent that its centralised resources add value. This centralised

department is responsible for quality assurance with respect to all acquisitions and is adriving force with respect to centralised pipeline management in the country

organisations. The centralised pipeline management ensures that each subsidiary

continues to explore acquisition opportunities which would contribute to the achievement

of ISSs objectives. ISSs mergers and acquisitions department is more heavily involved

in all larger acquisitions, and all acquisitions are approved by the Executive Group

Management of ISS A/S. In addition, the approval of the Board of Directors is required

for large or strategic acquisitions. The most important element of Group involvement is

in the assessment of country readiness for acquisitions as well as strategic screening and

valuation of acquisitions. On a discounted cash flow basis a total value of the target is

estimated by assigning value to six independent components.

y

y 1.Stand alone value of the target

2.Value of expected contract losses

3.Value of expected margin improvements

4.Value of expected financial synergies

5.Value of expected cost synergies

6.Value of expected future organic growth


10/22

y The Group operates with three key valuation indicators. First, Return on Investment

(ROI) and price multiples are assessed and measured up against appropriate

benchmarks varied according to size, industry segment, geography, etc. Second, the time

structure of the MVA and the EVA break-even horizon is assessed. In addition to the

mentioned valuation parameters a range of other criteria are employed on a discretionary

basis.y

THEORITICAL BACKGROUND

MEANING OF RATIO: -

A ratio is a simple arithmetical expression of the relationship of one number to

another. According to Accountants Handbook by Wixon Kell and Bedford, a ratio is

an expression of the quantitative relationship between two numbers . In short it can be

defined as the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions. The ratios can be

expressed in 1) Percentages 2) fraction and 3) Proportion of numbers.MEANING OF RATIO ANALYSIS: -

Ratio Analysis is a technique of analysis and interpretation of financial statements.

it is defined as the systematic use of ratios to interpret the financial statements so that

the strengths and weaknesses of a firm as well as its historical performances and current


11/22

financial condition can be determined. There are a number of ratios which can be

calculated from the information given in the financial statements, but the analysts has to

select the appropriate date and calculate only a few appropriate ratios from the same

keeping in mind the objectives of analysis.

The following four steps involved in the ratio analysis: -

1. Selection of relevant data from financial statements depending upon financial

analysis.

2. Calculation of appropriate ratios.

3. Comparison of the calculated ratios of the same firm in the past or the ratios

developed from projected financial statements to the ratios of some other firms

or the comparison with ratios of the industry to which firm belonged.

4. Interpretation of ratios.

INTERPRETATION OF RATIOS: -

The interpretation of ratios is an important factor. Though calculation of ratios is

also important but it is only a clerical task whereas interpretation needs skill,

intelligence and foresightedness. The impacts of factors such as price level changes,

change in accounting policies, window dressing etc should be kept in mind when

attempting to interpret ratios. The interpretation of ratios can be made in followingways: -

1. Intra firm comparison: - Here the ratios of one organization may be compared

with the ratios of the same organization for the various years either the previous

years or the future years.

2. Inter firm comparison: - The ratios of one organization may be compared with

the ratios of the other organization in the same industry and such comparison

will be meaningful as the various organization, in the same industry may be

facing similar kinds of financial problems.

3. The ratios of an organization may be compared with some standards, which

may be supposed to be the thumb-rule for the evaluation of the performance.


12/22

CLASIFICATION OF RATIOS: -

The ratios may be classified under various ways, which may use various criterions

to do the same. However for the convenience purpose, the ratios are classified under

following groups.

1. Liquidity group

2. Turnover group

3. Profitability group

4. Solvency group and

5. Miscellaneous group

LIQUIDITY GROUP:

The ratios computed under this group indicate the short-term position of the

organization and also indicate the efficiency with which the working capital is being

used. Commercial banks and short-term creditors may be basically interested in the

ratios falling under this group. Two most important ratios may be calculated under this

group.

1) Current Assets: -

It is calculate as, Current Assets/Current Liabilities

Current ratio indicates the backing available to current liabilities in the form of

current assets. In other words, higher current ratio indicates that there are sufficient

assets available with the organization, which can be converted in the form of cash. A

current ratio of 2:1 is supposed to be standard and ideal

.

2) Liquid Ratio or Acid Test Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Liquid Assets/Liquid Liabilities

Here liquid assets include all assets except inventory and p/p exps and liquid

liabilities except overdraft or cash credit or o/s exps.

Liquid ratio indicates the backing available to liquid liabilities in the form of

liquid assets. The term liquid assets indicate the assets, which can be converted in the

form of cash without any reduction in the value. Almost immediately whereas the term


13/22

liquid liabilities which are required to be paid almost immediately. In other words, a

higher liquid ratio indicates that there are sufficient assets available with the

organization, which can be converted in the form of cash almost immediately to pay off

those liabilities, which are to be paid off almost immediately. As such higher the liquid

ratio better will be the situation. A liquid ratio of 1:1 is supposed to be standard and

ideal.

TURNOVER GROUP:

Ratios computed under this group indicate the efficiency of the organization to

use the various kinds of assets by converting them in the form of sales. Under this

group the following classification of ratios are made.

1) Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Sales/Fixed Assets

A high fixed assets turnover ratio indicates the capability of the organization to

achieve maximum sales with the minimum investment in fixed assets. It indicates that

the fixed assets are turned over in the form of sales more number of times.

2) Current Assets Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Sales/Current Assets

A high current assets turnover ratio indicates the capability of the organization

to achieve maximum sales with the maximum investment in current assets. It indicates

that the current assets are turned over in the form of sales more number of times.

3) Working Capital Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Sales/Working Capital

A high working capital turnover ratio indicates the capability of the

organization to achieve maximum sales with the minimum investment in the working

capital. It indicates that working capital is turned over in the form of sales more number

of times.


14/22

4) Inventory or Stock Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Cost of Goods Sold/Avg. Inventory

A high inventory turnover ratio indicates that maximum sales turnover is

achieved with the minimum investment in inventory. As such as a general rule, high

inventory turnover ratio is desirable.

5) Debtors Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Net Credit Sales/Closing Sundry Debtor

This ratio indicates the speed at which the sundry debtors are converted in

the form of cash. However the intention is not correctly achieved by making the

calculation in this way. As such this ratio is normally supported by the calculation

period, which is calculated as below.

a) Calculation of Daily Sales: -

It is calculated as, Net Credit Sales/No of Working Days

b) Calculation of Collection Period: -

It is calculated as, Closing Sundry Debtors/Daily Sales

The average collection period as computed above should be compared with

the normal credit period extended to the customers. If the average collection period is

more than the normal credit period allowed to the customers, it may indicate over

investment in debtors which may be the result of over extension of credit period,

liberalization of credit term, ineffective collection procedure and so on.

6) Capital Turnover Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Sales/Capital Employed

This ratio indicates the efficiency of the organization with which the capital

employed is being utilized. A high capital turnover ratio indicates the capability of the


15/22

organization to achieve maximum sales with minimum amount of capital employed. As

such higher the capital turnover better will be the situation.

SOLVENCY GROUP

Ratios computed under this group indicate the long-term financial prospects

of the company. The shareholders debenture holders and other lenders of long-term

finance/ term loan may be basically under this group. Following ratios may be

computed under this group.

1) Debt-equity Ratio: -

It is calculated as, External Liabilities/.Shareholders Fund

Debt-equity ratio indicates the state of shareholders or owners in the

organization vis--vis that of the creditors. It indicates the cushion available to the

creditors on liquidation of the organization. A high debt-equity ratio may indicate that

financial status of the creditors is more than that of the owners. A very high debt-equity

ratio may make the proportion of investment in the organization a risky one. On the

other hand a very low debt equity rate may mean that the borrowing capacity of the

organization is being underutilized.

2) Proprietary Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Total Assets/Owners Fund

This ratio indicates the extent to which the owner s funds are sunk in

different kinds of assets. If the owner s fund exceeds fixed assets, it indicates that a part

owners fund invested in the current assets also and if owners fund are less than fixed

assets it indicates that the creditors finance a part of fixed assets either by long term or

short term.

3) Capital Employed Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Fixed Assets *100/Capital Employed


16/22


17/22

This ratio indicates the percentage of net sales, which is absorbed by the

operating cost. A high operating ratio indicates that only a small margin of sales is

available to meet the expenses in the form of interest, dividend and operating exps. As

such low operating ratio will always be desirable.

OVERALL PROFITABILITY GROUP

1) Return on Assets: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit *100/Assets

Return on assets measures the profitability of the investment in a firm.

As such higher return on assets will always be preferred. However Return on assets

does not indicate the profitability of various sources of funds, which finance total

assets.

2) Return on Capital Employed: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after taxes+Int on Long Term Loans*100/Capital Employed

Return on capital employed measure4s the profitability of the capital

employed in the business. A high return on capital employed indicates a better and

profitable use of long-term funds of owners and creditors. As such a high return oncapital employed is preferred.

3) Return on Shareholders Funds: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after Taxes*100/Total Shareholders Funds

This ratio indicates the profitability of a firm in relation to the fund

supplied by the shareholders

MISCELLANEOUS GROUP

1) Capital Gearing Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Fixed income-bearing securities/Equity Capital

A high capital-gearing ratio indicates that in the capital structure, fixed income bearing

securities are more in comparison to the equity capital in that case the Company is said


18/22

to be highly geared. On the other hand, if fixed income-bearing securities are less as

compared to equity capital the company is said to be lowly geared.

2) Earning Per Share: -

It is calculated as, Net Profit after tax and dividend/Number of equity shares o/s

It is widely used ratio to measure the profit available to the equity

shareholders on a per share basis. As such increasing Earning Per Share may

indicate the increasing trend of current profits per equity share.

3) Dividend Payout Ratio: -

It is calculated as, Dividend Per Share *100/Earning Per Share

It measures the relationship between the earnings belonging to the

equity shareholders and the amount finally paid to them by way of dividend. It

indicates the policy of management to pay cash dividend.

ADVANTAGES OF RATIOS

1. Ratios simplify the comprehension of financial statements. They tell the whole

story as a heap of financial data is condensed in them. They indicate thechanges in the financial condition of the business.

2. They act as an index of the efficiency of enterprise. As such they serve as an

instrument of management control. It is an instrument for diagnosis of the

financial health of an enterprise. The efficiency of the various individual units

similarly situated can be judged through inter-firm comparisons.

3. The ratio analysis can be if invaluable aid to management in the discharge of its

basic functions of forecasting, planning, co-ordination, communication and

control. A study of the trend of strategic ratio may help the management in this

respect. Past ratios indicate trends in cost, sales, profit and other relevant facts.

4. The ratio analysis provides data for inter-firm comparison or intra-firm

comparison. Comparison cannot be made with absolute figures. Net profit of

one firm cannot be compared with the net profit of the other firm. But the

percentages of net profits can be compared to evaluate the performance.


19/22

Similarly performance and efficiency of different departments in the same firm

can be compared with the help of ratios.

5. Investment decisions can at times be based on the conditions revealed by certain

ratios.

6. They make it possible to estimate the other figure when one figure is known.

29

LIMITITIONS OF RATIO ANALYSIS

Though ratio analysis technique has got number of advantages, it attracts equal

number of disadvantages too. Some of important advantages are as follows:

1) The ratios of the other organization May not be readily available.

2) Different accounting policies may be followed by the constituent organization

in the industry.

3) The constituent organization in the same industry may vary from each other in

terms of age, location, extent of automation, quality of management and so on

4) The technique of ratio analysis may prove to be inadequate in some situation if

there is difference of opinions regarding the interpretation of certain items while

computing certain ratios.

5) As the ratios are computed on the basis of financial statements, the basic

limitation, which is applicable to the financial statements, is equally applicable

in case of the technique of ratio analysis also.Thus the ratio analysis points out the financial condition of business whether

it is very strong, good, questionable or poor and enables the management to take

necessary steps.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

DATA COLLECTION

a) Primary Data: -

Primary data related to the project was collected from the discussion and

interaction with the senior employees and executives in the organization from

Accounts and Finance department.

b) Secondary Data: -

Secondary data was collected from the documents, which were in printed

forms like annual reports, pamphlets, reference books based on Financial

Management and through websites.

METHODOLOGY FOR ANALYSIS

The methodology opted for carrying out project was by way of collection of data

from the company s annual reports for the past three years i.e. from 2003-2004 to

2005-2006, for the calculation of ratios. The theory related to ratios was gathered

from various financial management books, which served the purpose of calculation

and analysis of ratios. Further based on the above statements ratios related to

liquidity, turnover, solvency, profitability and over profitability groups and

miscellaneous groups have been calculated and interpreted in an intra firm

comparison method. Similarly the ratios have been presented in graphical format to

have clear understanding of it during three financial years and changes in it.
