ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
We are grateful to our respected instructor Sushma Vishnani for giving us an opportunity to understand the financial analysis of Food Industry. Through this project we came to learn that how to look at the problem from a Managers perspective. We would like to present our gratitude to Sushma Mam for the successful completion of the project which would not have been possible without her continuous help and guidance.

Risk and Return

Introduction The project assigned to us is the analysis of Risk and Return of FOOD companies. Both risk and return go side by side, it becomes very important for an investor to consider both risk and return. The decision of an investor whether to invest or not is greatly influenced by the return given by that particular company and the risk associated. We took five different FOOD companies return as a component of FOOD sector. Market return has also been considered as benchmark. Excel has been used for the calculations. We have used functions like descriptive statistics, regression and charts. Risk and return has been calculated, analyzed and interpreted on the basis of last 60 months return (From April 2008 to March 2012). Firstly mean return of the companies has been calculated then with the help of descriptive statistics standard deviation risk has been calculated. It shows the amount of deviation of actual return from thee mean return. The sensitivity (BETA) has been calculated with the help of regression. The following companies have been taken: Neslet India ltd. Ruchi Soya ltd. Kwality Dairy ltd. Tata Global Beverages ltd. Venkeys India ltd.

Nestle India Ltd. Introduction Nestl is the world's leading Nutrition, Health and Wellness company. Our mission of "Good Food, Good Life" is to provide consumers with the best tasting, most nutritious choices in a wide range of food and beverage categories and eating occasions, from morning to night. The Company was founded in 1866 by Henri Nestl in Vevey, Switzerland, where our headquarters are still located today. After India's independence in 1947, the economic policies of the Indian Government emphasised the need for local production. Nestl responded to India's aspirations by forming a company in India and set up its first factory in 1961 at Moga, Punjab, where the Government wanted Nestl to develop the milk economy. Progress in Moga required the introduction of Nestl's Agricultural Services to educate, advise and help the farmer in a variety of aspects. From increasing the milk yield of their cows through improved dairy farming methods, to irrigation, scientific crop management practices and helping with the procurement of bank loans. The Company continuously focuses its efforts to better understand the changing lifestyles of India and anticipate consumer needs in order to provide Taste, Nutrition, Health and Wellness through its product offerings. Nestl India manufactures products of truly international quality under internationally famous brand names such as NESCAF, MAGGI, MILKYBAR, KIT KAT, BAR-ONE, MILKMAID and NESTEA and in recent years the Company has also introduced products of daily consumption and use such as NESTL Milk, NESTL SLIM Milk, NESTL Dahi and NESTL Jeera Raita. Now it employs around 2, 80,000 people and have factories or operations in almost every country in the world. Nestl sales for 2011 were Rs.6382.78 crore.

The returns are not proportional to the beta. The company has grater expected rate of return (16.682) than the required rate of return (8.986) that shows the undervaluation of the stock of the company. This means that the stock is being sold in the market at a value less than that of its intrinsic value. Its a profitable venture to invest. In such a case the investor would want to buy the more stock of this company.

Ans-2 Beta Beta is a measure of the relationship between a particular security's return and the overall return of the market. It is a measure of the non-diversifiable risk of a security. Here the beta is 0.11812644 suggests that one should expect the return of the stock to change by a positive 0.11812644 percent for each 1 percent change in the market. And it also showing the less volatility because of it is less than 1. The Nestle Beta (0.11812644) is 0.3815 less than Sector beta (0.499711635), it means the company stock is 38.15% less volatile than market. As sector beta is more than the companys beta. Sector is more risky than the company that means the company is defensive in his approach and the sector is aggressive in its approach. This also shows that company is not in fast growth phase. Since Debt equity ratio of Nestle is 0.13666667 which is good for the company since it is giving less financial leverage and hence, it is becoming less risky. And the Debt equity ratio of sector is 1.31 that showing the more riskiness than the company. Considering current ratio of a company it is 0.528333333 that is less than 1, means the company would be unable to pay off its obligations if they came due at that point. While this shows the company is not in good financial health and it is not a good sign for the company. Alpha (beta coefficient) The intercept of Nestle is 1.32171 which is the return of Nestle when the market return is zero. Here the alpha is positive that shows the stock is being traded at underpriced, which is a good option for investors to invest in the stock to get better return in future.

Coefficient of correlation (Multiple R) Nestle has coefficient of correlation of 0.0654 The positive correlation indicates that when market returns goes up Nestle returns also go up. Because correlation is the tendency of two variables to move together. A correlation coefficient () of +1.0 means that the two variables move up and down in perfect synchronization, while a coefficient of -1.0 means the variables always move in opposite directions. Coefficient of determination(R Square) This is the most important number of the output. R Square tells how well the regression line approximates the real data. This number tells you how much of the output variables variance is explained by the input variables variance. Nestle has coefficient of determination of 0.004 (or 0.4%). This shows that 0.4% of Nestle risk (variance in returns) is explained by the market returns. The 99.6% unexplained variance is the firm specific variance.
Systematic risk = R2 * variance = 0.004280948* 6.611083023 = 0.028301704 Unsystematic risk = (1-.R2)*variance = (1-0.004280948)* 6.611083023 =6.582781319

P-value The P-Values of each of these provide the likelihood that they are real results and did not occur by chance. The lower the P-Value, the higher the likelihood that coefficient is valid. Nestle P-Value is 0.0005 for its regression coefficient indicates that there is only a0 .05% chance that the result occurred only as a result of chance.

Ruchi Soya Inds. Ltd. Introduction In early 1960s Mr. Mahadeo Shahra created awareness on the potential of soya crop amongst the farmers in the state of Madhya Pradesh in India. He was instrumental in bringing up a small green revolution in the state, by introducing and encouraging soyabean cultivation on a commercial scale. Shahra family was in the business of commodities trading and subsequently entered the business of ginning and oil milling. The family's efforts, along with that of the others, resulted in soya revolution in Madhya Pradesh. Today Madhya Pradesh is considered as Soya bowl of the country, and contributes to approximately 60% of its production. Featuring among the top five FMCG players in India, with a turnover crossing Rs. 13,000 crores, Ruchi Soya Industries Limited is the flagship company of Ruchi Group of Industries. Besides being a leading manufacturer of high quality edible oils, vanaspati, bakery fats and soya foods, Ruchi is also the highest exporter of soya meal and lecithin from India. Nutrela (soya chunks, granules and soya flour) is the largest selling soya foods brand in the country. Ruchi is a leading branded edible oil supplier. Nutrela Soyumm (Soyabean Oil), Ruchi Gold (Palmolein Oil), Mahakosh, Sunrich (Sunflower Oil) and Mandap (Mustard Oil) and new healthy oil variants like Nutrela Vitamin Sunflower oil and Nutrela Groundnut oil make Nutrela a trusted option in edible oils.

The returns are not proportional to the beta. The company has grater required rate of return (12.525) than the expected rate of return (1.888) that shows the overvaluation of the stock of the company. This means that the stock is being sold in the market at a value more than that of its intrinsic value. Its not a profitable venture to invest. In such a case the investor would avoid to buy the more stock of this company.

Ans-2 Beta It is a measure of the non-diversifiable risk of a security. The beta is 0.60626318 suggests that one should expect the return of the stock to change by a positive 0.60626318 percent for each 1 percent change in the market.And it also showing the less volatility because of it is less than 1. The Ruchi Soya Beta is 0.60626318 and Sector beta 0.499711635, which 0.106551546 more than sector it means the company stock is 10.66% more volatile than market. As companys beta is more than the sector beta. Company is more riskier than the sector that means the company is aggressive in his approach then sector approach. This also shows that company is in fast growth phase. Since Debt equity ratio of Ruchi Soya is 1.655 which means that a company has been aggressive in financing its growth with debt. This can result in volatile earnings as a result of the additional interest expense, since it is giving more financial leverage and hence, it is becoming more risky than sector because off sector has Debt equity ratio of 1.31 that showing the less riskiness than the company. Considering current ratio of a company it is 0.791666667 that is less than 1, means the company would be unable to pay off its obligations if they came due at that point. While this shows the company is not in good financial health and it is not a good sign for the company. Alpha (beta coefficient) The intercept of Ruchi Soya is -0.19399618 which is the return of Ruchi when the market return is zero. Here the alpha is negative that shows the stock is being traded at overpriced, which is not a good option for investors to invest in the stock.

Coefficient of correlation (Multiple R) Ruchi Soya has coefficient of correlation of 0.344903857. The positive correlation indicates that when market returns goes up Ruchi Soya returns also go up. Because correlation is the tendency of two variables to move together. A correlation coefficient () of +1.0 means that the two variables move up and down in perfect synchronization, while a coefficient of -1.0 means the variables always move in opposite directions. Coefficient of determination(R Square) Ruchi Soya has coefficient of determination of 0.11895 (or 11.89%). This shows that 11.89% of Ruchi Soya risk (variance in returns) is explained by the market returns. The 88.11% unexplained variance is the firm specific variance.

P-value The P-Values of each of these provide the likelihood that they are real results and did not occur by chance. The lower the P-Value, the higher the likelihood that that coefficient is valid. But here Ruchi Soya P-Value is high i.e. 0.55974 for its regression coefficient indicates that the statistically not very true.
