ASSETS

Current Assets
The companys current assets are higher than the industry due to high short-term
receivables by the company. However, the company has some recent issues with the
collectibility of such. Write-off of said accounts receivable may be possible in the future.

Property, Plant and Equipment
Amount of PPE of the company is lower than the industrys which expresses the lack of
physical storage areas of the company. This is a factor for a high cost of inventory and
tends to lead to a higher cost of goods sold as compared to industry average.

recent decrease in short-term financing for their operations. Debt restructuring has also
been done to other liabilities of the company which transferred a substantial amount to
Long-term Liabilities.

Industry
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the company is lower than industry due to high cost of goods sold and the latter is
due to a high cost of inventory due to the lack of physical storage areas as explained above in the
financial position section under Property, Plant, and Equipment of this report.
Operating Expenses
This section is lower than industry average due to good relationships with clients especially in
terms of transporting goods. Also, the subsidiary of the company that allows them to directly sell
their product has contributed a lot to lower this section. Lastly, good logistics planning of the
company despite lack of physical storage areas has lowered this section.
Operating I ncome
Operating Income for the company is higher than industrys average due to the benefit of low
operating expense for the company relative to the industry.
Other Expenses
The company incurs a higher other operating expenses as compared to the industry due to
maximum utilization of manufacturing plants and resulted to a higher utility cost. The company
also incurs a high but efficient cost of advertising for their products and also is a reason for their
good brand name in the market.
I ncome Tax
The company incurs a high income tax than the industry average due to a higher operating
income and also with the extensive effort of management to faithfully pay taxes. This has led to
the company being awarded as one of The 50 Most Transparent Companies of the Philippines
(2013).
Net I ncome
Net income is lower than industrys average mainly due to the high tax payment of the company.
However this does not affect the company much as they are confident with their stable position in
the market and their good relationship with their clients. Net income is projected to grow for
subsequent years with the efforts of management to lower inventory cost which posed a concern
for the company.
