WHERE IS Deutz Aktiengesellschaft?: LABOR PRODUCTIVITY AND FINANCIAL COMPETITIVENESS BENCHMARKS PUBLISHED

San Diego -- – ICON Group International Ltd. today released two of the most comprehensive studies to date on labor productivity and vertical gap analysis benchmarks for Deutz Aktiengesellschaft (BRU, DUS, FRA, PAR, OTH: DEZ).

The Report has benchmarked Deutz Aktiengesellschaft against competing firms in the Industrial and Commercial Machinery and Computer Equipment industry worldwide—going beyond traditional methods of company benchmarking. The results are two specialized reports: (1) global financial benchmarks using common-size statement ratios (vertical analysis), and (2) labor-productivity and utilization measures collected across borders. Parker notes, “With the globalization of markets, greater foreign competition, and the reduction of entry barriers, it becomes all the more important to benchmark a company’s financial indicators on a worldwide basis. World stock markets have recently witnessed a return to fundamental financial analysis. Sound management as opposed to hype will in the long run generate shareholder value.”

The methodologist for this unique study is Philip Parker, Eli Lilly Chair Professor of Innovation, Business and Society at INSEAD (Fontainebleau, France and Singapore). According to Professor Parker, “We created these reports in response to two inescapable trends: a return to fundamentals and globalization.” The goal of these reports is to assist consultants, financial managers, strategic planners, and corporate officers in gauging indicators of Deutz Aktiengesellschaft’s human resource and financial structure.

Professor Parker states, "We are intrigued by the wide variations in basic financial and productivity measures between Deutz Aktiengesellschaft and other Industrial and Commercial Machinery and Computer Equipment companies. The Earnings Before Interest And Taxes (EBIT), for example, varied from -9.56 to 117.7. We see this type of variation in the hundreds of ratios that we estimate.”

What do the reports cover?

Two reports, labor productivity ratios and vertical analysis ratios, are available for Deutz Aktiengesellschaft. Each report reveals productivity and industry ranks for companies in the Industrial and Commercial Machinery and Computer Equipment industry.

The labor productivity analysis details the following: What has been the ratio of short-term and long-term assets to employee? What are typical capital-labor ratios? What are the average sales and net profits per employee compared to global benchmarks?

The vertical analysis answers the following questions: How has Deutz Aktiengesellschaft’s asset structure varied compared to global benchmarks for the Industrial and Commercial Machinery and Computer Equipment industry? Does it generally hold more cash and other short-term assets, or does it tend to concentrate its assets in physical plant and equipment? On the liability side, does Deutz Aktiengesellschaft typically have a higher percent of payables compared to the benchmarks, or does it hold a higher concentration of long-term debt? Does Deutz Aktiengesellschaft have a relatively higher cost of goods sold, operating costs, or income taxes compared to global benchmarks? Have Deutz Aktiengesellschaft’s returns on equity been higher or its profit margins greater?

How do they do that? : Methodology

While most vertical analyses merely focus on benchmarking against domestic ratios, often published by government agencies or commercial sources, the report calculates thousands of industry norms by looking at firms at the global level. It pools statistics on tens of thousands of companies across over 40 countries, and applies a seven-stage methodology: (1) identification of industry classifications, (2) firm-level data collection and aggregation, (3) standardization of raw statistics, (4) filtering outliers, (5) calculation of global norms, (6) projection of deviations and gaps, and (7) projection of ranks and percentiles. For each part of the financial statement, the larger structural differences and gaps between Deutz Aktiengesellschaft and the global benchmarks are provided with summary tables of ranks and percentiles.

Previously available only through booksellers such as Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, and Hoovers, two studies are now available direct from the publisher at a 50% discount off the cover price. This special offer includes International Competitive Benchmarks and Financial Gap Analysis and Labor Productivity Benchmarks and International Gap Analysis at US$ $420 ($210 each).
