Kuwait Economic Overview:
Kuwait is an oil based economy with the fifth largest proven crude oil
reserves in the world. Consequently, Kuwait’s economy was structured around
the production and refining of hydrocarbons. According to preliminary data
from Kuwait’s Central Statistical Office, nominal GDP grew 16.9% YoY (Year
on Year) in 2010 to reach KWD 35.6 billion, up from KWD 30.5 billion the
previous year. Growth was driven largely by the oil sector, which contributed
KD18.3 billion to GDP, an increase of 22% YoY due to higher oil prices in
2010. During the year 2010, Kuwait reported a budget surplus of KWD 6.3
billion. Oil revenues for the year reached KWD 18.8 billion and accounted
for approximately 94% of total government revenues. The Economist
Intelligence Unit (EIU) expects the non-oil sector to remain relatively small,
despite efforts to diversify the economy. Looking forward, EIU forecasts real
GDP to grow at an average rate of 4.9% over the 2011–2016 periods.1

ACICO Industries Company
Kuwait Stock Exchange
Liquidity and Asset Ratios:
The current ratio is less than 1 which is a good sign. This
indicates that ACICO would be unable to pay off its debt obligation if
they came due at that point. The sales to asset ratio has declined in the
last 2 years which isn’t a good sign. It indicates that ACICO needs
more investment to generate sales revenue which means less
profitability of the firm. The cash ratio of ACICO is 0.11 in 2010
which is low. This means that creditors would be reluctant in how
much debt they should give to ACICO.
Leverage Ratios
The total debt to total assets ratio in 2010 was 65%. This means
that 65% of the company’s assets are financed by debt. This means that
the majority of the company’s assets are financed by debt. The debt to
equity ratio of 2.02 is high which means that ACICO has been
aggressive in financing its growth by debt.
Growth Potential Ratios
The assets growth potential in 2010 is 12%. The growth was
pretty high before the 2008 crisis with 72% growth. The revenue
growth in the last 2 years has been negative. This indicates that the
revenue has been decreasing for the last 2 years.
Profitability Ratios
The Return on Equity (ROE) ratio measures the amount of net
income earned as a percentage of equity. ACICO’s ROE is pretty
consistent with its competitors and is higher than the sector median so
they are in the normal range. The Return on Average Equity (ROAE)
has been consistent in the last 2 3 years due to the consistency and
predictability of the company’s ROE. The Return on Assets (ROA) and
Return on Average Assets (ROAA) for the last 3 years has been
consistent within a certain range (between 2 and 3%).
