So, after going through 3, 80-100 pages long, financial reports of the Pennon Group, some of the key concepts and the questions that stuck to my mind are as under:
I have read articles and news about the group and see what they are upto, which by the way are mentioned in the previous report, take a read should that interest you.
Key challenges the firm appears to be facing
How successful it appears to be in meeting these challenges and its apparent strategy.
My company’s financial statements are presented in vertical columns, whereas I have read, that isn’t the case in all of the scenarios. Different style of presentation of the company’s report are these.
List the order of the financial statements, as in 1st is Income Statement, 2nd is Balance Sheet, 3rd, 4th etc (starting from page 114 to 118)
And financial notes are mentioned in detail at the end of the financial statement/ Annual reports.
