 Executive Summary
The principal reason of banks chartered by the government and the central bank is to
make loans to their customers. Banks are expected to support their communities with an
adequate supply of credit for all legitimate business and consumer financial needs and
to price that credit reasonably in line with competitively determined interest rates.
Indeed, making loans is the principal economic function of banks to fund consumption
and investment spending by businesses, individuals, and units of government. How well
a bank performs its function has a great deal to do with the economic health of fits
region, because banking performance support the growth of new businesses and jobs
within the banks trade territory and promote economic vitality. Moreover, bank loans
often seem to convey positive information to the marketplace about a borrower’s credit
quality, enabling a borrower to obtain more and perhaps somewhat cheaper funds from
other sources. Therefore, evaluating BRAC Bank Limited’s financial performance by
comparing it with that of the best performing commercial banks of Bangladesh.

As the competition is increasing, the commercial Banks are constantly looking for scope
to develop credit operation and performance appraisal to the market. However tight
control on the part of the Central Bank, Bangladesh Bank restricts the scope for
maneuvering in the market with new performance and credit operation. Therefore, bank
require finding out untapped market space for growth.

Moreover, in these liquidity crunch times, it is crucial for banks to be able to perform
efficiently and effectively. If the bank is not being able to perform than the bank might
no bankrupt which would have a significant impact on the economy.

Profitability Ratios
Return on Assets (ROA):

The return on assets (ROA) percentages shows how profitable a company’s assets are in
generating revenue. Higher the percentages of return, higher the efficiency of assets.

Return on Assets (ROA) =Net Income after Tax / Total Assets

Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Return on Asset 0.93% 1.02% 1.55% 1.83% 1.66%

2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Comment: From the above calculation, we see that Return on Asset increased gradually from
the year 2014 to 2017 and ROA has increased from 0.93% to 1.83% in these years. But ROA has
fallen in the year 2018 which was 1.66%. A low percentage ROA indicates that the company is
not making enough income from the use of its assets. That means assets of the bank was
effectively used in the years 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 but it failed to use its assets effectively
in the year 2018 and that’s why they can’t make enough income.
Page 7
Return on Equity (ROE):

Return on Equity (ROE) is the amount of net income returned as a percentage of shareholders’
equity. The return on equity ratio, sometimes called return on net worth, is the most important of
the entire profitability ratio for investors in the company.

Return on Equity (ROE) : Net Income after Tax/ Total Equity Capital

Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Return on Equity 11.34% 11.46% 18.33% 21.30% 17.94%

Comment: From the above calculation, we see that Return on Equity increased gradually from
the year 2014 to 2017 and ROE has increased from 11.34% to 21.30% in these years. But ROE
has fallen in the year 2018 which was 17.94%. As we know, a ROE of around 15% would be
considered healthy, and one that is 20% or higher would be good or we can say that ROE
between 15%-20% are generally considered good. So though BRAC Bank’s ROE has fallen in
the year 2018, it is in the range of 15%-20%.

Earning Per Share (EPS) :

A company’s profit divided by it numbers of common outstanding shares. In calculating EPS, the
company often uses a weighted average of shares outstanding over the reporting term.

Earning per Share = Net income after Tax / Common Equity Shares Outstanding

Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Earning per Share 3.19 3.43 5.23 4.21 5.17

2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Comment: From the above calculation, we see that Earning Per Share (EPS) increased
gradually from the year 2014 to 2016 and EPS has increased from 3.19 to 5.23 in these years.
But EPS has fallen in the year 2017 which was 4.91 and then in the year 2018 EPS has increased
by 5.17. The higher the EPS of a company, the better is its profitability. As the maximum EPS of
BRAC Bank was in the year 2016 and 2018, so we can say that BRAC Bank has earned better
profitability in 2016 and 2018.

 Liquidity Ratio
Current Ratio:

Current Ratio measures the ability of the company to pay the current liabilities which are payable
within the period of next one year with respect to its current assets available like cash,
inventories, and accounts receivable. The higher is the current ratio, the better is the liquidity
position of the company.

Current Ratio = Current Asset / Current Liability

2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Comment: A good current ratio is between 1.2 to 2.If the ratio is 2, which means that the
business has 2 times more current assets than liabilities to covers its debts. In case of BRAC
Bank the ratio remained between 1.02 to 1.06 between the year 2014-2018.Though it stared low
but at the end of 2018 it reached 1.06 which is between the standard ratio. They have a good
ability to pay company’s current liabilities.
Cash Ratio:

The Cash ratio measures the ability of the company to pay the current liabilities which are
payable within the period of next one year with respect to its cash or cash equivalents. It assesses
the ability of the company to stay solvent if there comes any emergency as even a highly
profitable company sometimes can go into trouble in case if no liquidity is there to meet
unforeseen events like economic depression.

Cash Ratio = (Cash and Cash Equivalent + Short term Investments) / Current Liability

Comment: There is no ideal figure, but a ratio of at least 0.5 to 1 is usually preferred. BRAC
Bank has Ratio lower than 0.5.A cash ratio lower than 0.5 does sometimes indicate that a
company is at risk of having financial difficulty. However, a low cash ratio may also be an
indicator of a company's specific strategy that calls for maintaining low cash reserves because
funds are being used for expansion.

Efficiency Ratios

Total Asset Turnover :

This ratio provides a measure of overall investment efficiency by totaling the joint impact of
both short term and long term assets.

Total Asset Turnover = Revenue/ Average total assets

Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Total Asset 0.072 0.075 0.075 0.077 0.073

0.077 0.075

0.075

Comment: From the above calculation, we see that the Total Assets Turnover ratio increased
gradually from the year 2014 to 2017 and the ratio has increased from 0.072 to 0.077 in these
years. But the ratio has fallen in the year 2018 which was 0.073.That means, assets of the bank
was effectively used in the years 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 but it failed to use its assets
effectively in the year 2018.

Working Capital Turnover :

This turnover ratio reflects the amount of operating capital needed to maintain a given level of
revenue. Only operating assets and liabilities should be used to compute this ratio.

Working Capital Turnover = Revenue/Average Working Capital (* Working Capital =

Current Assets – Current Liabilities)

Working Capital Turnover

Comment: From the above chart, we see that the working capital ratio of Brac Bank ltd.
gradually increased from 0.53 to 0.59 in the year 2014, 2015, 2016. But it decreased in the year
2017 and 2018 which were 0.58 and 0.48.It means the bank has utilized its working capital very
efficiently in the year 2014, 2015 and 2016. But it has failed to operate at its optimum in the year
2017 and 2018, as a result the ratio has been decreased in the year 2017 and 2018 respectively.

 Solvency Ratios

Debt to Asset Ratio :

The debt to total assets ratio is an indicator of a company's financial leverage that determines
the percentage of a company's total assets that were financed by creditors.

Debt to Asset Ratio = Total debt/Total asset.

Year 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

2014 2015 2016 2017 2018

Comments: A debt ratio of 0.5 is often considered to be less risky. This means the bank has
twice as many assets as liabilities. A ratio of 1 means that total liabilities equals total assets. In
other words, the bank would have to sell off all of its assets in order to pay off its liabilities.
Once its assets are sold off, the business no longer can operate. In 2014, the ratio was on a poor
level because it was 0.903% and the ratio was close to 1.Gradually on 2015, 2016, 2017 ratios
were .908% , .912% , .908% again on a poor level as the ratios remains close to 1. Also in

Debt to Equity Ratio :

 The debt to equity ratio reflects the ability of shareholder equity to cover all outstanding debts in
the event of a business downturn.

Debt to Equity Ratio = Total debt/ Total shareholders’ equity.

Comments: The ratio highlights a company's dependence on borrowed funds and its ability to
meet those financial obligations. Lower values of debt-to-equity ratio are favorable indicating
less risk and higher debt-to-equity ratio is unfavorable because it means that the business relies
more on external lenders thus it is at higher risk, especially at higher interest rates. On 2014 the
debt-to-equity ratio was 9.828% which increased gradually to 10.406%,11.041% and 11.041%
on following year 2014,2015,2016. An increasing trend in of debt-to-equity ratio is alarming

Page 15
because it means that the percentage of assets of a business which are financed by the debts is
increasing. But on 2018,the ratio decreases to 8.974%, the lowest comparing to the other 4 years
which means the ratio is less risky than the previous years.

 Capital Adequacy Ratio

Capital adequacy ratio is a measure to find out the proportion of banks capital, with respect to the
total risk-weighted assets of the bank. The credit risk attached to the assets depends on the entity
the bank is lending loans to, for example, the risk attached to lending loan to the government is
0% but the amount of loan lends to the individuals are very high in percentage.

Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) = (Tier 1 capital + Tier 2 capital) / Risk Weighted Assets

Comment: As per a roadmap issued by the Bangladesh Bank in 2014, the banks were supposed to raise
their minimum capital adequacy ratio (CAR) to 12.5&of their risk-weighted assets by December 2019
from the then 10 percent and under Basel III, the minimum total capital ratio is 12.9%. So, it can be said
that BRAC Bank is ready for Basel III .

Comment: As horizontal analysis shows changes in the amounts of corresponding financial

statement items over a period of time, we can see that ,on the asset side, Cash, Investment , Fixed
Asset and other assets has increased gradually in the three years. In the Liability side, we can
observe that borrowings from Central Bank increased but borrowings from other banks increased
in the year 2017 and slightly decreased in the year 2018. Besides, Bank Deposits has been
increasing for the last three years that indicates positive impact to the Bank . So, concisely, we
can say that as Bank’s Asset is increasing and there is euphony between asset and liability, BRAC
Bank’s financial situation is strong and has a sturdy position in the market.

Comment: Vertical analysis is the proportional analysis of a financial statement, where each line item on a
financial is listed as a percentage of another item. On the asset side, we can see that Cash, Investment (Loans),
