Computer Modelling Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Computer Modelling demonstrates strong profitability and efficient operations, with healthy margins and return on equity. However, recent revenue and free cash flow declines pose potential risks. The balance sheet shows improved leverage, but the company should focus on reversing the negative growth trends to maintain financial health.

Income Statement

Computer Modelling has shown strong profitability with a consistent gross profit margin above 75% and a net profit margin around 17% in the TTM. However, the recent revenue growth rate is negative, indicating a potential slowdown in sales. EBIT and EBITDA margins remain healthy, suggesting efficient operations despite the revenue decline.

Balance Sheet

The company's debt-to-equity ratio has improved over time, indicating better leverage management, currently at 0.45. Return on equity remains robust at 28.85% in the TTM, showcasing strong profitability relative to shareholder equity. However, the equity ratio is moderate, suggesting a balanced but not overly conservative capital structure.

Cash Flow

Operating cash flow to net income ratio is stable, reflecting consistent cash generation relative to earnings. However, free cash flow growth has been negative recently, which could be a concern if it persists. The free cash flow to net income ratio is high, indicating efficient conversion of earnings into free cash flow.
