Thank you for the video. Can you do a video about balance sheet analysis as well?
You mentioned early in the video that you didn’t know why companies would close their books in September instead of December. It’s usually due to “seasonality”, when sales are at their lowest in the year coming off of the summer months. Therefore Net Working Capital [NWC (= Inventories + Receivables - Payables +/- Net Accruals)] should be at its lowest in September. Don’t forget Apple usually releases new products in the 4th quarter so inventory levels should be at their lowest at the end of September. By Closing the books when NWC is at its lowest, Capital employed will also be at its lowest. This will maximize ROCE. Also, it’s just best to close in the quarter with the slowest activity so as not to distract the company from the busy holiday season. Most retailers also operate in this fashion.

Wow! That is very interesting. And it makes sense that most of the companies I see with a September year end are retailers

Most retailers (not Apple) end their FY at end of January. Very few end in December because there is too much Y/Y noise due to calendar shifts. This is also where you squeeze in a 53rd week every 6-7 years.

can you explain in a little more detail, how the capital employed would be at the lowest at sept?
I'm only halfway through the video and I just have to say your explanations are by far the best I have heard so far. I've been researching how to analyse companies for investment for months, it's been slow progress. Although I was familiar with most of the terms you were speaking about, my understanding of them just trippled thanks to your breakdown of each of them. Thankyou so much I will now prioritize this chanel first, amazing video 😄
Great, great presentation, I really enjoyed the way you showed how to make a discounted cash flow model in a simple and objective way. I'm studying valuation, but it's really hard to find practical content online, it would be awesome to see a whole series on how to make a proper valuation of a stock and how to read all the three key financial statements (Balance sheets, Cash flow and Income Statement) and how to use the financial ratios (PE, Price to book... ) with a detailed breakdown of each one.
This is one of the best videos I've ever watched on income statements and really filled a lot of gaps I had in my knowledge of why I should care about different items. I would LOVE to see you do a DCF video.

Thank you for making this. You have a great narrating voice. Very easy to understand.
Would love to see a video that covers the projections for DCF valuation which is ultimately used to determine if a stock is undervalued!! Very helpful
Thanks for the great explanation. Can't wait for the ones of balance sheet and cash flow!
I commend the video for comprehensively presenting the idea that Accounting students learn in Financial Analysis!
Love the idea behind this video and how you kept it simple. Can you go over projections in a separate video we’re you give a few examples /repetitive so it will the process”sinks in” and we can better apply it to different companies/modules. Thank you.
Great and simple. While others try to make difficult to understand content yours was very fluid and amazing !

Excellent presentation. I understand this better now. Yes, more on your spreadsheet please.
Great video, I am very interested in how you set up the income statement for predicting the future performance of the company. I would love a video on how you set that up and as you mentioned deriving the cash flows from that. Thanks

I have a comment for 6:00 - 7:00: The margins of the products and services are actually really important and I personally have never payed attention to them. From now on I will. They are so important because you can see what position you want the company to be scaling. Therefore it would have been nice if you did show how to calculate it. For those who dind't understand, it goes like this: (Service revenue - Cost of service)/Service revenue = Service gross margine. And further down the line, comapnies can't scale their Gross Margines for ever, that's why you actually can't expect them to be scaling and scaling and scaling, because it's unlikely going to happen. But they defenitely should keep at least a stable Gross margine which is somewhat high. At least that's my point of view. Great video, I love it. Lovely greetings from germany

Great video we need more contentl ike this and please do a video on projection
The different fiscal year end dates are caused by the company's adoption of four periods per year consisting of 13 weeks each. Notice each of the four periods end on a saturday. This method causes each of your quarterly reports to contain the same number of weeks (13) and each of your fiscal years to contain exactly 52 weeks. It makes accounting a little more complex but yields exact comparability. Sometimes an accountants nightmare, but worth it in the long run.

I work in corporate accounting for a publicly traded firm and we have our fiscal year end in October because we would struggle to get everything done with the holiday calendar in December and January
The reason why some companies report its financial statements not on the year end it is because they report their FS when the company is on slack season which means movement of assets are very slow, in which the management believe it would capture or would be more representative of the company financial position
