THE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF STARBUCKS FOR THE YEARS 2019 AND 2020
PREPARED BY:
The project provides an overview of financial statement analysis for companies in the
hospitality and tourism industry. The process of evaluating the performance and viability of
firms, projects, budgets and other financial operations is known as financial analysis (Tuovila,
2021). For this project, we have selected the Starbucks business to review its financial analysis
for two years, 2019 and 2020. The main goal of this task is to investigate and analyse financial
performance and differentiate between the two companies over the last two years. The
assignment is divided into three sections on different types of analysis: historical data analysis,
comparative analysis (i.e., comparative horizontal analysis and standard -size vertical analysis),
and financial ratios. Analysis of historical data helped us determine performance trends for
both companies over a number of years. Tables and graphs were used for the analysis of this
historical data. Next, businesses can identify key trends and estimate future trends by analysing
financial comparisons and identifying significant or abnormal changes. Comparing the
performance of Starbucks in 2 years that is in 2019-2020 based on the financial statements
allows us to know the overall financial performance of the company. Furthermore, ratio
analysis helps us in comparing performance with each company’s benchmarks to better
understand the overall performance of the Starbucks organization. According to the findings
mentioned above, Starbucks is performing better in 2020. In 2020, Starbucks reported $ 7.8
million in equity, slightly higher than $ 6.2 million in 2019. An increase in capital stock could
benefit investors in the long run if Starbucks can issue a large number of additional shares
without experiencing a significant reduction in price share; it is a good sign for companies and
analysts. Total Assets increased to $ 29.4 million, up from $ 19.2 million. Finally, this project
allows us to apply what we have learned from this subject. It helps us in a better understanding
of a company’s financial performance tools.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
In 1986, Howard Schultz launched his first coffee shop in the Columbia Seafirst Centre,
two others in Seattle and one in Vancouver. He also recruited Dave Olsen, one of Seattle's first
bohemian espresso bars, as a coffee consultant and staff trainer. Schultz decided to merge the
six-unit Starbucks chain, which his old colleagues had offered when Starbucks was
experiencing difficulties. He also changed Starbucks company name, and it prepared to go
national as Starbucks Corporation. When Starbucks Coffee opened its first location in Japan in
1996, it began expanding globally. In early 2000, the company signed a partnership with
Kozmo.com Incorporated, an Internet home-delivery service that sends DVDs, snacks, and
other products to its consumers. Starbucks was working to reach Schultz's high targets of 500
locations in Japan and Europe by 2003 and 20,000 stores worldwide by the early twenty-first
century. In June 2000, he resigned as CEO of the company to become the company's chief
global strategist. Jim Donald appointed Orin Smith as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in 2005,
and the total number of stores this year is 10,241. The company then introduced the first paper
beverage cup manufactured from post-consumer recycled fibre. In 2009, the company had 16
635 stores around the world. Starbucks Coffee Company's global operations resulted in total
net revenues of USD 9.8 billion for its business sales and operations.

1.2 LITERATURE REVIEW
According to a study conducted by Al-Nasser (2014), in his journal titled “The Impact
of Financial Analysis in Maximizing the Firm’s Value” A Case Study On The Jordanian
Industrial Companies, ”the author shows a study on the relationship between income, financial
position, and how This relationship is evolving. One hundred questionnaires were designed for
this purpose and distributed by hand to a randomly selected sample of employees from various
Jordanian industrial companies.The Statistical program of the Social Sciences Package for the
Social Sciences (SPSS) analyzed the resolution data. Finally, the study found that financial
analysis has a strong positive influence in assisting managers in making effective decisions that
increase firm profitability and value.
Based on a study by Hasanaj and Kuqi (2019), with his journal entitled "Analysis of
Financial Statements" in the “Humanities and Social Science Research” journal article, the
author asserts that the primary goal of this research is to identify, forecast, and evaluate the
best future economic conditions and company performance. The study's other purpose is to
analyse financial statements and provide relevant data to financial managers to make better-
informed decisions. The financial statement employs tools, analytical techniques, and required
approaches for business analysis. It serves as a diagnostic method for analysing financing,
investment, and operational activities and a tool for assessing management and other business
decisions. Managers, shareholders, investors, and all other interested parties use financial
statement analysis, or financial report analysis, to determine the state of the business. Managers
use financial reports to assess the company's current situation and then provide information to
shareholders to determine whether the company's investments are reasonable. The analysis of
the company's financial statements is essential to potential investors because they want to know
the company's current state before deciding whether or not to invest.

(NPM), and sales growth (SG) ratios positively influence profit growth (PG). In contrast, the
current ratio (CR) and current liability to inventory (CLI) ratios have a negative influence. The
size of a company has no bearing on the growth of its profits. The study's findings suggest that
if a company operates efficiently and with low liquidity, it can boost profits and encourage
growth in sales.
A study by Saputera, Saudi, and Sinaga (2021) with their journal entitled "Analysis Of
Financial Performance On Profit in The Food And Beverages Sub Sector Company." in the
"Turkish Journal of Computer and Mathematics Education," the goal of this study is to
determine the intended effect and to aid management in making decisions, as well as to identify
benefits and drawbacks, as well as financial considerations. The corporation expects profit
growth in each period, but the difference is that the profit does not match the expectation, and
the company loses money. The achievement of goals is a metric of a company's operational
success and a scale or description for future planning. Profits aren't always profits; they might
also achieve future goals. The most outstanding technique to gain information from financial
reports is through or through ratio analysis in finance. Liquidity measures, such as the Current
Ratio (CR), solvency or leverage ratios, such as the Debt to Asset Ratio (DAR), activity ratios,
such as Total Asset Turnover (TAT), and profitability ratios, such as Net Profit Margin (NPM),
can be used to assess financial circumstances or performance. Data processing entails
transporting data in the food and beverage sector (food and beverage firms). Sixteen companies
were studied during five years (2012-2016), with a sample of ten companies. On the Indonesia
Stock Exchange (IDX), ten food and beverage firms are described in detail (2012-2016).
According to simultaneous research results, the factors Current Ratio (CR), Debt to Asset Ratio
(DAR), Total Asset Turnover (TAT), and Net Profit Margin (NPM) combined affect earnings.

1.3 PURPOSE OF STUDY
This group project of the Financial Performance Analysis course requires students to
analyse the financial analysis of companies in the hospitality and tourism industry. Students
must compare the financial performance of an organization using financial tools such as
financial ratios, financial statement analysis (i.e., historical data analysis, comparative analysis,
trend index analysis) and any other relevant financial methods. For our study, our group
selected a company from the food and beverage industry: Starbucks. We have also decided to
use two methods: the first is financial statement analysis, which uses historical data and the
second is comparative data analysis. Second, to compare the financial results of the two
organizations for 2019 and 2020, we used ratio analysis. Financial accounting is important in
the industry because it allows managers to plan and generate budgets, track overall financial
performance, assess public perceptions, develop short- and long -term strategies, etc.
We may obtain results from the analysis of historical data to view and compare the short
-term and long -term performance trends of the company by completing this report. Based on
the diagram provided, we can describe the analysis of historical data. In addition, we obtain
financial performance results through comparative analysis. Comparative analysis is divided
into comparative horizontal analysis and normal size vertical analysis. This analysis is
compared using income statement and balance sheet. Comparative analysis is a technique for
comparing items and identifying their similarities and differences. We will learn to compare
items and report the information gathered using this comparative analysis.
Finally, ratio analysis gives us new information that we can use to assess a firm’s
performance trends over time. We also learn about ratio formulas and computation as well as
explain our cumulative ratios. Financial analysis tools are important to understand because they
are commonly used in the hospitality and tourism industries. When students start working, they
will use the financial analysis they have learned. The Financial Performance Analysis course
is designed to help students become better managers because of the importance of financial
analysis in decision making. Managers must understand how to use this financial information
to improve the overall financial performance of the company. Not only that but financial
research helps in the budgeting process. Strategic forecasting is necessary to prepare for
challenges and implement strategic planning.

2.1 HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
2.1.1 Historical Performance Analysis of Starbucks
Table 1: The Component Historical Performance Analysis of Starbucks for Two Years

Graph 1 shows the performance of historical analysis on Starbucks from 2019 to 2020
with every eight financial components. From the graph 1, we can see sales is decrease from
2019 to 2020 which is different $2,990,600,000 ($26,508,600,000 – $23,518,000,000). The
sale dropped because the consolidated net revenues of $6.2 billion were down 8% from the
previous year, mostly owing to sales lost due to the COVID-19 epidemic. The consequences
of changed operations, fewer hours, reduced consumer traffic, and temporary shop closures
resulted in $1.2 billion in lost revenue relative to the company’s estimates before the epidemic.
In expenses, also show a decrease from $22,728,700,000 to $22,278,800,000 in both 2019 and
2020. The dip was caused by Starbucks taking initiatives to recover revenue by the
consequences of changed operations, fewer hours, reduced consumer traffic, and temporary
shop closures, resulting in $1.2 billion in lost revenue relative to the company’s estimates
before the epidemic. Following to net income showing the biggest drop among all the
components of historical analysis. The biggest drop in net income can be seen in graph one;
recorded net income dropped which is $928,300,000 and $3,599,200,000 in 2019 and 2020.
With the difference of this amount, $2,670,900,000 ($3,599,200,000 - $928,300,000),
Starbucks’ challenge in achieving a steady value net income is reduced sales and greater costs.
Furthermore, based on the graph 1 show the trend of current assets is increased from
$5,653,900,000 in 2019 to $7,806,400,000 which recorded $2,152,500,000 ($5,653,900,000 -
$7,806,400,000). While the current liabilities have recorded a rising with the amount
$6,168,700,000 to $7,346,800,000 in both 2019 and 2020. The difference of amount increased
is $1,178,100,000 ($6,168,700,000 – $7,806,400,000).

2.2 COMPARATIVE AND COMMON-SIZE ANALYSIS
2.2.1 Comparative Horizontal Analysis for Income Statement (Starbucks)

Interest Expense (331.0) (437.0) +106 +32.02
Earnings Before Income Taxes 4,466.2 1,164.4 -3,301.8 -73.93
The analysis of Starbucks' income statement is presented in the table above. According
to the analysis, Starbucks has a negative revenue trend from 2019 to 2020, evidenced by a -
2,990,600,000 USD reduction with a -11.28 percent change in the United States Dollar. This
drop comes as a result of Starbucks' low overall income. Many customers were hesitant to dine
out or go outside due to the pandemic COVID-19. Net revenue is calculated by deducting
discounts and returns from sales revenue. Net revenue is sometimes referred to as the "true top
line" because it displays total revenues after deducting only direct sales-related expenses.
Furthermore, viewing the total operating expenses has described a reduction with the
changes in United States Dollar is much -449,900,000 USD at -1.98%. The decline from 2019
to 2020 towards Starbucks Coffee company is despite Starbucks lowering its own cost of goods
sold (COGS), which refers to a direct cost of manufacturing products or services, such as
reducing the labor and material costs previously used. A company incurs an operating expense
due to its routine business activities. Rent, equipment, inventory costs, marketing, payroll,
10
insurance, step charges, and monies allocated for research and development are all examples
of operating expenses.
Starbucks' earnings before income taxes from 2019 to 2020 similarly showed a negative
record, with a -3,301,800,000 USD drop at a -73.93 percent decline. Earnings before taxes
(EBT) is a metric used to assess a company's financial performance. It is a calculation of a
company's earnings before taxes. Revenue fewer expenses, excluding taxes, is the computation.
EBT is a line item on the income statement of a business. It displays a company's earnings after
deducting the cost of goods sold (COGS), interest, depreciation, general and administrative
expenses, and other operating expenses from gross sales.

Table 2 shows Starbucks' comparative horizontal analysis balance sheet from 2019 to
2020. Under assets, we can see that Starbucks' total current assets have increased by
+2,152,500,000 USD or a +38.07 percent increase. This good trend has caused Starbucks to
rise from 5,653,900,000 USD to 7,806,400,000 USD in 2019 and 2020. Based on the
computation of non-current and current assets, Starbucks' total assets show a positive change
in United States Dollars of +10,154,900,000 USD and +52.84 percent. Total assets in 2019 are
13
smaller than total assets in 2020, with both sums being 19,219,600,000 USD and
29,374,500,000 USD.
Meanwhile, Starbucks' current liabilities are unfavorable because 2019 has a lesser
record than 2020, with both amounts totaling 6,168,700,000 USD and 7,346,800,000 USD.
The increase in current liabilities is proven by a change of percent +19.10%, and the United
States Dollar is +1,178,100,00 USD. As a result of these liabilities, Starbucks' overall liabilities
increased significantly in 2019 and 2020, from 25,450,600,000 USD to 37,173,900,000 USD.
This situation makes Starbucks unfavorable, with a USD change of +11,723,300,000 at a
+46.06 percent change.
Next, the total shareholders’ deficit shows an increase in 2020 at 7,805,100,000 USD
compared to the year 2019 at 6,232,200,000 USD. The total shareholders’ deficit rise indicates
a change in United States Dollar by noting +1,572,900,000 USD and +25.24% change. A
shareholder deficit can and frequently is a warning sign. It signifies that the company has not
only been losing money but has also lost more money than its owners invested into it in the
first place.
Lastly, the total liabilities and shareholders' equity show a higher in 2020 at
29,374,500,000 USD, and the lowest is in 2019 at 19,219,00,000 USD. This situation makes
Starbucks favorable because of the United States Dollar record change +10,154,900,000 at
+52.84% change. However, after subtracting total liabilities from total assets, shareholders'
equity is the claim. If shareholders' equity is positive, the company has enough assets to cover
its liabilities, but if it is negative, its liabilities exceed its assets.
