Profit from the Europe segment declined as well approximately 9.96 % which represent the 34.89 % which is so significant & major cause of concern for the management.
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 8
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Performance of the North American segment as much better than the performance of the above discussed two segments. This segment shows an incline profit by 1.49 % as compared to last financial year of 2011.The profit from this segment comprises approximately of 51% of the total revenues which is a significant contributor of the total segment profit.The other segment profit also has inclined from the last financial year of 2011 by 18.76 % which is the largest increase among all other geographic
regions. The profit from this segment comprises 3.6 % of the total revenue
of the current financial year.
Conclusion
The Australia & Asia, Europe shares almost 45 % of the total revenues but these segments performance are not good enough as compared to other segments which should be examined carefully in order to improve the profitability of these segments.Performance from the American & other segments seem much better as compared to other sectors & from the last year. Company must review its policy in The Australia & Asia, Europe & examines factors which are negatively affected the profitability.(See Appendix 1 for more detail & calculation)

Financial Analysis
Trend Analysis
Profitability Analysis
As it’s reflected in the below represented chart that the company ROE is sloping downward throughout the five years. Further investigation of this declining ROE is due to ROA & there is no change in leverage position of the company.
Decomposition of ROA for examination in fall down in net profit margin & asset turn over it can be easily inferred that there is much more fluctuation in net profit margin than in asset turnover & net profit margin causes ROA to decline.
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 10
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Now it is necessary to investigate what are the reasons behind this net profit margin deterioration.
Above mentioned chart clarify the case that net profit margin is declining due to decline in EBIT margin & it’s open the door of further analysis to strengthen are reasons to explain this downward movement.
Now we can clearly identify that the gross profit margin is source of decline in EBIT margin to the greater extent rather than operating expenses.
Note: Revenue & cost of goods sold impact checkBY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 11
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Financial Risk Analysis
As appear in the above diagram that the company total debt to equity showing downward trend & company is in comfortable position because financial risk is declining.Further analysis shows that the long term debt to total capital ratio also declining as well as total debt to total capital ratio but to the lesser extent which signals that the long term debt is a significant source of decline in
financial risk.
Short Term Financial Position
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 12
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Company short term financial position is deteriorating for last five years as it can be easily analyzed by the above chart that both current & quick ratio is showing downward trend which can cause firm to pay its short term debt timely & brought about the company under distress in short term.
Efficiency Analysis
As it can be easily interpreted that the both inventory & receivable days show instability over the five years. But fluctuation in account receivable is greater than in inventory which affects both profitability & liquidity position of a company. No clear trend in both days in inventory & receivables which reflect that either company policy is not consistent or the company policy affected by seasonality because the demand of company product is highly elastic.
Cash Flow Analysis
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 13
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As it can viewed from the above chart that the company’s revenues cash producing ability for its operations are declining which is not a positive sign for the company because company needs cash to carry out its day to day operations.
Company cash flow to investing & financing showing clearly stable upward trend which signals that the company is able to acquire assets, pay debts & can make distributions to its owners.
Cross Sectional Analysis Profitability Analysis
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 14
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
It clears from the above chart that the carnival plc more profitable than the industry.Carnival plc net, operating & gross profit margins are above the industry five years average net, operating, gross profit margins.
Conclusion:
The reason for improve profitability may be improved cost structure or seasonal affects. But the former reason is not justified in trend analysis which was showing upward trend. (Source: Investing.uk;stocks, Jan 2, 2008)
Liquidity Analysis
As far as liquidity position are concerned carnival plc is not as liquid as other firms in the industry this is a sign for short term financial inability to pay its debts timely. As it can be seen that we have much more inventory than the other firms this can cause increase in carrying & handling cost for the carnival

Solvency Analysis
It is clear from the chart that we are in convincingly in good position to manage our debt than the firms in the industry.(See appendix 2 for detail calculation
Efficiency Analysis
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 16
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
It is clear that the inventory turnover is below than industry which means that we not selling as many as goods as other firms in the industry.As oppose to inventory turnover a/c receivable turnover exceeds than industry turn over which means that on the average we have strict credit terms as compared to industry.
Conclusion :
The strict credit term than industry is bring about the decline in inventory turnover which should be taken under consideration.(SOURCE: Global Business Browser)
Risk Management
Foreign Exchange Rate Risks Management Strategy
Carnival plc manages its foreign currency risk exposure through its financing & operating activities, in addition to netting certain exposures by using non derivatives or derivatives financial instruments.Our brands yield large revenues and incur considerable expenses in Sterling, the Australian dollar & Euro consequently variations & these currencies against the US dollar will affect the consolidated financial result of carnival plc we express our financial statements in US dollars.So the stronger (unfavorable) & weaker (favorable) US dollar will impact our financial statements.
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 17
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Interest Rate Risks
Management of interest rate risk is pursue through debt portfolio management by buying high quality short term floating rate investment s,& evaluating debt portfolio In order to make adjustment to the mix of floating & fixed rate debt or the early retirement or existing debt.
Fuel Price Risks
Carnival plc faces market risk due to change in fuel prices, consumed by the ships. To mitigate a portion of economic risk caused by increased in fuel prices, fuel derivatives are used.Carnival uses derivative market for fuel derivatives contracts to maximize operational flexibility recently we use zero collar derivative contract on Brent, based on the prices of Brent however carnival actually used marine fuel for their ships. There is insignificant correlation between Brent & marine fuel. Carnival plc also evaluates different strategies & derivative product.
Credit Risk
Carnival monitors its credit risk concentration as operating control measures concerned with financial & other institutions on priority basis.Carnival all derivative contracts are in the money till November 30, 2012 related to foreign currency, fuel & interest rate swap derivative contracts, & are insignificant is the replacement cost, net of any collateral received, in case when counter parties expected not to perform. All of them are our lending banks.By diversifying our counterparties, Dealing with large, high standing financial institutions, export credit agencies & insurance companies Carnival looks for curtail credit risk exposure, including counter party non performance attached with our investment, contingent obligations, cash
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 18
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
equivalents, new ship progress payment guarantees, contingent obligations, derivative instruments & insurance contracts.To preserve liquidity & minimize risk we follow guidelines regarding credit rating & investment maturities. In general guarantees /collateral are not needed to support long-term ship charters and new ship progress payments to shipyards, notes receivable on significant asset sales.Carnival keeps eye on creditworthiness of tour operator, travel agents & credit cards providers. Credit risk from the payment received from the travel agent & tour operator from Europe is immaterial. (Source: Carnival plc, Annual Report 2012)

BETA
The measure of financial risk beta of carnival plc calculated on by using covariance of daily sock return of carnival & FTSE.
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 21
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
The overall beta of five years is 1.059, which shows greater volatility in carnival stock than FTSE but critical analysis shows that the beta is sloping downward which also impact the weighted average cost of capital carnival plc which in turn affect the cash flows of the carnival plc & also improves in the return on stock.
But in case of boom in the stock market this downward trend is not healthy sign because the stock return will not exceeds the return on market.
But still in the downward trend over the five years the company beta is still above one.
(See appendix 2 for detail calculation)

Weekly Chart
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Technical Analysis
From 2008 to May 2009 the carnival plc chart shows downward trend as long term simple moving average is above both medium term 50 & short term 20 moving averages.
But after July 2009 carnival changed its trend toward upside & continuously move in upward direction till June 2011 as it is showed by the 2oo day moving average which is well below than 50 day & 20 day moving averages as it is also support by RSI which continues remains above 50 most of the times. at this stage there is much more stability.
In June 2011 the trend changed & carnival started to form a new trend which swiftly enters in to downward & continues to move downward till July 2012 at this stage RSI figure touched to 40 but still there was not too much dips in the market as supported by MACD. After July 2012 the market again changed its trend trends toward strongly as it is appeared by higher highs & also supported by RSI which touched to 80 & become turned into over sold area & this trend going to an end at March 2013.
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 23
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Now currently market is downward trend as shown by the above charts but the momentum is not so strong to support to take any sell position.
Carnival v/s FTSE
Analysis
As it is reflected in the graph that the carnival stock is more volatile than the benchmark FTSE which can be interpreted that the more fluctuation in the carnival stock return than the FTSE.It can be inferred that the Equity beta of Carnival plc is greater than one(1) which is also confirmed by the beta calculation.
Weighted Average Cost Of Capital
We use the book value for the weights of debt & equity & the beta value was the same as we calculated above. We uses 20 year rate because a long

CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
term investor must have at least 20 year time period & reason for using treasury rate because it is safest & longest tenured rate available.
WAAC = Cost of Debt*debt / (debt +equity) + Cost of Equity*debt / (debt +equity)
WAAC = 7%* 39% + 13%* 61%
WAAC = 11% approximately
Future Strategy
Carnival dedicated to be profitable by expanding its business lines, introduce new fleets by replacing inefficient ones’ by every two to three
years. Carnival considering the growth of emerging regions as in China &
Japan in Asia because over the five years the customers have doubled from
the emerging regions.We also focus on reducing our cost by managing our fuel consumption & other cost. As well as gaining efficiency by using technologyCarnival also ambitious to increase its cash flows from operations & focus on return the higher yields to share holders.(Source: Carnival plc, Annual Report)
Conclusion .Due to global financial crises the global cruise industry facing downturn in the demand of their products which in turn affect also carnival. The operating cost has increased due to increase in higher fuel prices, the currency impact, inflationary pressures on food, freight, crew travel and other hotel operating expenses. As result of this increase in cost the
BY ASIM RAFIQUE Page 25
CARNIVAL PLC STRATEGIC FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
operating income has declined as compared to past results. Although the gross & net revenue increased as compared to past.
The Australia & Asia, Europe shares almost 45 % of the total revenues but these segments performance are not good enough as compared to other segments.Performance from the American & other segments seem much better as compared to other sectors & from the last year. As far as long term financial condition over the time & as compared to industry is not cause of concern for carnival plc as oppose to short term financial position over the period & as compared to industry.Carnival also not using its resources efficiently over the years & as compared to industry as reflected in the efficiency ratios.Stronger (unfavorable) & weaker (favorable) US dollar will impact carnival financial statements even though carnival using forward contract to manage its exposure. Carnival manages its risk of foreign exchange, interest rate, credit & fuel price risk efficiently & effectively. Company beta as measure of financial risk is also moving downward which shows that carnival is not risky over the years.
Recommendations
Carnival plc should review its strategic environment internally & externally to control increase in operating cost.
Company must review its policy in The Australia & Asia, Europe & examines factors which are negatively affected the profitability.
Carnival must manage its liquidity & its efficiency by using alternative available sources.
Carnival would be cost effective if it uses options contracts rather using forward contracts.
