LITERATURE
Environmental and Financial Performance Literature Abstract We review the growing literature relating corporate environmental performance to financial performance. We seek to identify achievements and limitations of this literature and to highlight areas for further research. Our primary interest is to assess the adequacy of the literature in informing corporate managers how, when, and where to make pro-environment investments that will pay off with financial returns for long-term shareholders. To do so, we create a conceptual framework that maps the influence of regulators, public health scientists, environmental advocates, consumers, employees, and other interested parties upon corporate financial returns. Our discussion has relevance to all parties interested in influencing corporate actions that affect the environment. An Investigation of the Perceived Financial Performance of Commercial Printing Firms for Conducting B2C Activities Using Web Technology Abstract This paper is primarily based on Rogers diffusion of innovations theory and Augers empirical study. An empirical research study was conducted to investigate the perceived financial performance of commercial printing firms for conducting business to- customer (B2C) activities using Web technology.
15
Financial performance was measured using four financial indicators: sales, profits, costs, and return-on investment (ROI). The diffusion of innovations theory states that an innovation brings changes to a company. Web technology is an innovation that affects companys performance. This paper investigates the effect of Web technology on commercial printing firms financial performance.
Corporate Social Responsibility: Strategic Implications We describe a variety of perspectives on corporate social responsibility (CSR), which we use to develop a framework for consideration of the strategic implications of CSR. Based on this framework, we propose an agenda for additional theoretical and empirical research on CSR. We then review the papers in this special issue and relate them to the proposed agenda. Financial Statement Analysis: A Data Envelopment Analysis Approach Abstract: Ratio analysis is a commonly used analytical tool for verifying the performance of a firm. While ratios are easy to compute, which in part explains their wide appeal, their interpretation is problematic when two or more ratios provide conflicting signals. Indeed, ratio analysis is often criticized on the grounds of subjectivity that is the analysts must pick and choose ratios in order to asses the overall performance of a firm. In this paper, we demonstrate that Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) can augment the traditional ratio analysis. DEA can provide a consistent and reliable measure of the managerial or operational efficiency of the firm. We test the null hypothesis that there is no relationship between DEA and traditional accounting
16
ratios as a measure of performance of a firm. Our results reject the null hypothesis indicating that DEA can provide information to analysts that is additional to that provided by the traditional ratio analysis. We illustrate the application of DEA to the oil and gas industry to demonstrate how financial analysts can employ DEA as a complement to ratio analysis.

INTRODUCTION
Financial statements: A financial statement (or financial report) is a formal record of the financial activities of a business, person, or other entity. There are different types of financial statements. Financial statements, are required to be audited by authentic, efficient audit firms to avoid manipulation of numbers. Statements are usually audited by the accounting firms after a thorough study of the company records. The accounting and the audit firms make sure that the company is obeying and operating as per norms laid down by the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or GAAP. Basically, there are four different types of financial statements. The different
22
types of financial statements indicate the different activities occurring in a particular business house.
Balance Sheet Income statement Statement of retained earnings Statement of cash flow or Cash flow statement
Financial statement analysis is defined as the process of identifying financial strengths and weaknesses of the firm by properly establishing relationship between the items of the balance sheet and the profit and loss account. There are various methods or techniques that are used in analyzing financial statements, such as comparative statements, schedule of changes in working capital, common size percentages, funds analysis, trend analysis, and ratios analysis.
Financial statements are prepared to meet external reporting obligations and also for decision making purposes. They play a dominant role in setting the framework
23
of managerial decisions. But the information provided in the financial statements is not an end in itself as no meaningful conclusions can be drawn from these statements alone. However, the information provided in the financial statements is of immense use in making decisions through analysis and interpretation of financial statements.
The basic objective of studying the ratios of the company is to know the financial position of the company. To know the borrowings of the company as well as the liquidity position of the company
To study the current assets and current liabilities as to know whether the shareholders could invest in Stem infra services. Or not.

AND ANALYSIS
RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis is a important tool of financial analysis useful to measure the performanceofanorganization. Ratio analysis is a procedure of comparing one figure against another, which make ratio, and the assessment of the ratios to make proper analysis about the effectiveness and impuissance of the procedures of an enterprise. A ratio is defined as, "a fraction whose numerator is the 'antecedent' and denominator the 'consequent'". It is simply an expression of one number in terms of another. The relationship between two accounting variables, expressing mathematically is known as an accounting ratio.
26
Ratios
are
expressed
in
different
ways:
A. Liquidity ratios
Liquidity ratios measure a businesss ability to cover its obligations, without having to borrow or invest more money in the business. The idea is that there should be sufficient cash and assets that can be readily converted into cash to cover liabilities as they come due. One of the most common liquidity ratios is:
1. Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities Current ratio may be defined as the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. It is a measure of general liquidity and is most widely used to make the
27
analysis for short term financial position or liquidity of a firm. It is calculated by dividing the total of the current assets by total of the current liabilities. TABLE-1 CURRENT RATIO
28
Current ratio of the company was 0.56:1 in the year 2007-08 which indicates a poor liquidity position in the initial year. It indicates that the firm was not able to pay of its current obligations on time.
We see from the above schedule and diagram that the liquidity position has improved over a period of two years from 1.41:1 in the year 2008-2009 to 2.23:1 in the year 2009-10 indicating a much better liquidity position
We also see on the other hand that the debtors of the company which were nil in the year 07-08 increased to 2, 85,011 in 08-09 and again decreased in the year 09-10 to 213719 which is also a good sign for the company showing a stable liquidity position.
Stem infra services overall shows a healthy trend of improved liquidity
2. QUICK RATIO:
Acid-test Ratio = Current Assets minus Inventories / Current Liabilities Liquid ratio is also termed as "Liquidity Ratio, Acid Test Ratio" or "Quick Ratio". It is the ratio of liquid assets to current liabilities. The true liquidity refers to the ability of a firm to pay its short term obligations as and when they become due.
TABLE -2 QUICK RATIO
29

ratio

1,28,09,425
07-08 to 1.41:1 in the year 08-09 and to 2.23:1 in 2009-10 which is a good improvement and indicates that the firm is liquid and has the ability to meet its current or liquid liabilities in time. We can also see from the above table that the current and the quick ratio of the company is the same for all three years because the quick assets are calculated as quick assets= current assests-stockp/pexpenses and since the stem infra is a service company it does not hold any stock for sales, thus the stock and sales of the company is nil.
30
Since liquid ratio in excess of 1 is regarded as satisfactory, it shows that the firm is controlling its short term financial position.
31
As a long term financial ratio it may be calculated as follows: [Total Long Term Debts / Total Long Term Funds] Or [Total Long Term Debts / Shareholders Funds] Debt-to-Equity ratio indicates the relationship between the external equities or outsiders funds and the internal equities or shareholders funds. It is also known as external internal equity ratio. It is determined to ascertain soundness of the long term financial policies of the company.
32
The companys debt equity ratio was negative in the year 2007-08 which indicates that the firm their has been no contribution to the capital by the proprietors and the capital has been raised though debt in the year 2007-08. We can see in the above table and diagram and also from the balance sheet that the debt of the company has increased from 44, 33,888 in the year 2008-09 to 90,32,684 in the year 2009-10 in respect to equity which is not a good sign for the company as the its dependence on the outside borrowings have in increased.
33
Thus we find that the company is depending on outside borrowings within an increased proportion which is not good for the financial health of the firm as it does not give the share holders the benefit of leverage.
2. PROPRIETRY OR EQUITY RATIO Proprietary or Equity Ratio = Shareholders funds / Total Assets
This is a variant of the debt-to-equity ratio. It is also known as equity ratio or net worth to total assets ratio. This ratio relates the shareholder's funds to total assets. Proprietary / Equity ratio indicates the long-term or future solvency position of the business.
TABLE-4 PROPRIETRY OR EQUITY RATIO
Year
Sh.fund
Total assets
Ratio 34
INTERPRETATION AND ANALYSIS This ratio throws light on the general financial strength of the company. It is also regarded as a test of the soundness of the capital structure, but here we find that the ratio of the company is too low than the required norms (0.5) in the year 2007-08, which is negative. This indicates an inadequate or low safety cover for its creditors. It may lead to unwillingness of creditors to extend any
35
money to the enterprise. The ratio also tells us that companys lenders have contributed more funds than owners. It further indicates greater risk to the creditors. In the year 2008-09 the ratio has improved to 0.63 and in the year 2009-10 it has further improved to 0.71 which indicates an adequate safety for the creditors, which in turn is good for the company
C.Turnover Ratios
Turnover ratios are also referred to as Activity Ratios or Asset Management Ratios . They show the relationship between levels of different assets. They tell us how efficiently assets are deployed by the firm. Key Turnover ratios are
36
Receivables Turnover ratio Working capital turnover ratio Capital turnover ratio
The turnover ratios of the firm cannot be computed because stem infra services is a service company and does not hold any stock for sales. Turnover ratios are always calculated on the basis of sales or stock, thus we cannot calculate any turnover ratio for the company.
D.PROFITIBILITY RATIOS
Profitability ratios are used to assess a business' ability to generate earnings as compared to expenses over a specified time period. There are many types of profitability ratios and we would be analyzing the following Earnings per share Return on investment Price earning ratio
37
1.EARNINGS PER SHARE Earnings per share (EPS) Ratio = (Net profit after tax Preference dividend) / No. of equity shares (common shares) Earnings per share ratio (EPS Ratio) are a small variation of return on equity capital ratio and is calculated by dividing the net profit after taxes and preference dividend by the total number of equity shares.
38
Analysis and Interpretation We see from the above data that profit after tax is negative for the year i.e. the company has incurred losses in the year 2007-08 and 2008-09, so the earnings per share cannot be computed.
The ratio helps in evaluating the prevailing market price of the shares in the profit earned by the company, and here we find that company has earned a profit of 16, 95,217 in the year 2009-10 and the earning per share is 3.39 per share.
2.Return on investment A performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency of an investment or to compare the efficiency of a number of different investments. To calculate ROI, the benefit (return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment; the result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio.
39
ratio 15.38
Analysis and Interpretation The company has incurred losses in the year 2007-08 And in the year 2008-09, and we also find that in the year 2007-08 company had a negative working capital due to which the capital employed is also negative. Thus, due to losses incurred by the company in these two years there is no return on investment.
40
We also find from the above data that the company earned a profit of Rs. 19, 36,126 in 2009-10 and has earned a return of 15.38% on its investment. Since ratio for all years cannot be computed, thus it is difficult to comment on the overall performance of the firm.
TABLE-6
PRICE EARNING RATIO Year 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 Market price 10 10 10 EPS 3.39 ratio 2.9
41
ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION Price earning ratio for the firm cannot be computed for the year 2007-08 and the year 2008-09 because the company had incurred losses in both these years and thus, EPS for the company could not be computed. P/E Ratio can only be computed for the year 2009-10. Price earnings ratio helps the investor in deciding whether to buy or not to buy the shares of a particular company at a particular market price

RECOMMENDATION
57
1. The companies profit over a period of years has been increasing when compared to previous years. The company must target a fixed growth every year and must take steps to keep increasing its profit levels. 2. The liquidity position of the company is quite satisfactory. Liquid and current ratio of the company are above their optimum level, this can further be improved for the purpose of proper utilization of liquid assets of the company. Management can seek to invest a portion of excess liquid assets in long term assets where returns are higher and risk levels are acceptable.
3. Debt equity ratio is not satisfactory for the past 3years .Improvement can
be done by reducing long term debt by disposing of unproductive assets and using proceeds to liquidate debt, or accelerating payments on long term loans. Other ways may be increasing local equity by generating higher levels of local savings. 4. Since, stem infra services is a newly formed company, we find that the company had suffered losses in its initial years but the profitability has improved over a period of years. 5. Price earning ratio of the company cannot be determined for all the years as the company incurred losses during its initial years.This could be clearly seen in their balance sheet, as they are discarding their fixed assets year by year. 6. Since, this is a service company; therefore, they dont need to maintain a large inventory of fixed assets.
58
7. There is a decrease in both secured loans and unsecured loans which indicates that the company is repaying its loans on time. This will enable the company to raise more loans in future
8. Current liabilities and provisions are increasing but not to a large extent which cannot be considered a negative point for the company, as it will not affect their credibility to a large extent. But yes, the company must try to maintain it because it cause problems in raising loans or making credit purchases in future
9.
According to the statements provided by the company we find that the policy of paying out dividend to its share
holders, but we see the that the dividend has not been declared by the company at all in the years 2007, 2008 because the company has not earned any profits.
