CBA SKILLED LAWYER SERIES 2018
Financial Ratios and Financial Statement Analysis
Financial ratios as defined by many corporate agreements do not necessarily match related items on financial statements. When advising clients in a corporate transaction, lawyers need to understand the different kinds of ratios, why they are relevant, how they are calculated, and how they are commonly understood by clients.
This webinar will help you understand how to translate and communicate between financial ratio terms as used and defined in corporate transactions, and how such terms are presented on a client’s financial statements and generally understood by them.
Topics will include:
• Financial ratios – general overview
• Purchase agreements – working capital adjustments
• Leverage ratios – financial covenant patterns
• Liquidity ratios – financial covenant patterns
This is the 5th webinar of the Interpreting Financial Statements program.
