Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: A, Monash University Melbourne, language: English, abstract: Despite the fact that share price is not the best indicator of firm’s financial performance because of the fact that many others factors including speculation impact the share price of any company, in the long term, it is a strong manifestation of the firm’s performance in the market and its appeal to the investors. Quite visibly, the company’s share price was peaking at a level of 2450 during the second quarter of 2008, which could be marked as the last few months of the economic boom and after which, when recession impacted Russia during the first quarter of 2009, the share prices of Lukoil plunged to the lowest level of 749. However, the economy of Russia has been quick in recovering, unlike Europe, which due to its debt crisis is predicting a double dip recession. As the graph reveals, Lukoil’s share price has now restored to the similar level where it was during the first quarter of 2008.

Financial Analysis of Lukoil
Share Price
Despite the fact that share price is not the best indicator of firm’s financial performance because of the fact that many others factors including speculation impact the share price of any company, in the long term, it is a strong manifestation of the firm’s performance in the market and its appeal to the investors. Quite visibly, the company’s share price was peaking at a level of 2450 during the second quarter of 2008, which could be marked as the last few months of the economic boom and after which, when recession impacted Russia during the first quarter of 2009, the share prices of Lukoil plunged to the lowest level of 749. However, the economy of Russia has been quick in recovering, unlike Europe, which due to its debt crisis is predicting a double dip recession. As the graph reveals, Lukoil’s share price has now restored to the similar level where it was during the first quarter of 2008.

Profit Margin, Operating Margin and Gross Margin
Over the past five years, the firm’s profitability has decreased which is evident from the sliding profit, operating and gross margins. These margins have became more steadier during the last couple of years but all of them plunged during the 2007-2009 period indicating that the firm had to spend more during the recession in order to survive and remain profitable. Furthermore, a huge gap between the gross margin and operating margin indicates that Lukoil is spending considerably high sums of money for operating expenses which should be looked into and tapped. On the plus side, the increasing proximity of the firm’s operating and profit margin indicates that its interest expense has been decreasing over the years thus making the business less risky.
