ICON Group International Ltd. Releases Financial and Labor Productivity Benchmarks on SJNB Financial Corp. SAN DIEGO, Calif. -- – ICON Group International Ltd., today released two economic analyses on labor productivity and financial benchmarks for SJNB Financial Corp. (NAS: SJNB). 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, the uniqueness of these forecasts is that they involve comparisons across borders within the same competitive sector. He explains, “Our studies are strategic. This report was created for people who need to know how SJNB Financial Corp.’s managerial style differs from firms competing in the sector at the global level.” The report has benchmarked SJNB Financial Corp. against competing firms in the National Commercial Banks industry worldwide. 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. Financial Gap Analysis How does SJNB Financial Corp.’s balance sheet structure differ from global benchmarks? Does SJNB Financial Corp. hold more cash and short-term assets, or does it concentrate its assets in physical plant and equipment? Does it have a higher percent of payables compared to the benchmarks? Does it hold a higher concentration of long-term debt? Does SJNB Financial Corp. have a relatively higher cost of goods sold, operating costs, income taxes, or profit margins compared to global benchmarks? Intended for consultants and other strategic planners, this study goes beyond traditional gap analyses by considering firms competing in the same economic sector based on a sample drawn from numerous countries and gives dozens of statistical benchmarks, and some 30 graphs summarizing a statistical gap analysis. Labor Gap Analysis Are workers at SJNB Financial Corp. productive? There is no absolute answer to this economic question. The second forward-looking study considers how labor deployment and productivity indicators for SJNB Financial Corp. differ from the global benchmarks. It looks at the amount of labor required to operate SJNB Financial Corp. and the resulting return on human investment. What is the ratio of short-term and long-term assets to employee? What are comparative capital-labor ratios? What are the average sales and net profits per employee in SJNB Financial Corp. compared to benchmarks from the same economic sector. Reports on 393 companies in the National Commercial Banks industry are available including:
"We are intrigued by the wide variations in basic financial and productivity measures between SJNB Financial Corp. and other National Commercial Banks companies, notes Professor Parker. “The Earnings Before Interest And Taxes (EBIT), for example, varied from -5.63 to 74.57. We see this type of variation in the hundreds of ratios that we estimate.” ICON’s Methodology While most vertical analyses focus on benchmarking against domestic ratios, often published by government agencies or commercial sources, ICON Group International Ltd. calculates thousands of industry norms by looking at firms at the global level. Statistics are pooled on tens of thousands of companies across over 40 countries, and a seven-stage methodology is applied: (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 SJNB Financial Corp. and the global benchmarks are provided with summary tables of ranks and percentiles. Previously available only through booksellers such as Barnes and Noble , Amazon.com, 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). E-mail
