Speaker: Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us today. In this presentation, we will be discussing Shaw Corporation – Financial Analysis & their Forecast , [Slide 1: Shawcor Ltd. Executive Summary] Speaker: Shawcor Ltd. is an innovative and market-leading telecommunications company. Despite the challenges faced during the global pandemic, they have maintained a strong balance sheet and continued their expansion efforts. As we enter fiscal year 2023, this organization is expected to carry the momentum that has been built. Show Corporation’s revenue growth has been respectable, although they have also experienced an increase in operating expenses. [Slide 2: Financial Performance Overview Now if we talk about their financial performance Speaker: The global pandemic had an impact on the total revenue, causing a decrease initially. However, the revenue increased in 2022 as the situation improved. slight changes in their cost of revenue were also noticed, which we predict will decrease in the future. Also, the Net income had a substantial decrease in 2020 but has been improving since then. Overall, the pandemic did impact our financial performance, but we can still see improvement in the numbers after 2020. [Slide 3: Company Analysis] Now talking about their general analysis as an organisation Speaker: the company has shown an increase in total assets and cash, indicating a positive trend. We can see a remarkable improvement in operating cash flow as their primary operations have achieved their objectives and generated more cash. Shawcor Ltd. excels in market leadership and possesses a strong portfolio of brands. While they are facing fierce competition in the market, they have maintained their market position through an ethical mindset. [Slide 4: Ratio Analysis] Speaker: Let's take a closer look at Their financial ratios. The liquidity ratio, specifically the current ratio, has trended downward, indicating a possible liquidity issue. However, their solvency ratios, including the debt-to-equity ratio and debt ratio, have been decreasing, providing greater liquidity and lower long-term debt risk. On the profitability front, their return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE) have been negative, indicating challenges in generating profits and returns for their shareholders. However, the cash flow ratios, such as the operating cash flow ratio and cash ratio, have been increasing, showing improved cash flow management and lower liquidity risk. [Slide 5: Financial Forecast]

Speaker: Looking ahead to the Financial Forecast for this company, revenue growth will be a crucial factor in determining their success. And Various factors will influence this growth, including the demand for telecommunications services, organisation’s expansion efforts, pricing tactics, and customer retention programs. In terms of Their sales performance, they have experienced a decrease in sales for Q2 and in the past six months compared to the previous year. Similarly, their net income and earnings per share have also decreased for Q2 and in the past six months compared to the previous year. [Slide 6: Suggested Measures for Performance Improvement] Speaker: To improve their performance, we suggest several measures. First, they need to increase revenue through diversification, entering new markets, implementing effective pricing tactics, and focusing on customer satisfaction. Second, they should analyze their operating expenses, refine processes, and leverage technology to improve efficiency. Thirdly, evaluating their capital expenditure choices will help us align the organisation with their strategic objectives and revenue growth. Lastly, they need to carefully examine their debt structure and seek ways to reduce debt and interest payments. [Slide 7: Industry Analysis] Speaker: Let's now turn our attention to the industry analysis. The Canadian telecommunications sector is considered an essential consumer service. In 2020, the sector generated $53.4 billion in revenue, experiencing a slight drop from the previous year. Industry leaders include Bell Canada, Quebecor, Rogers Communications, Shaw Communications, and Telus. The wireless industry accounts for the largest share of revenue, followed by local, data and private lines, fixed internet, and long-distance services. [Slide 8: Benchmarking Analysis] Speaker: In this organization’s benchmarking analysis, they have been monitoring Shaw Communications (SJR). Until last year, Shaw Communications saw a rise in its Relative Strength (RS) Rating. This rating compares a stock's price movement to other stocks in the database. Shaw Communications has the potential to maintain its recovery and reach a higher rating. Although there is no potential buying area currently, we will continue to monitor chart patterns that indicate a new move. [Closing remarks]

Speaker: In conclusion, Shawcor Ltd. has demonstrated resilience and maintained a strong position in the telecommunications industry. While the pandemic impacted their financial performance, they still seem to be improving over time. By implementing suggested measures for performance improvement and closely monitoring industry trends and benchmarks, they can enhance their growth and profitability in the future. Thank you.
