[20]
clicking the bell ican Friends today we going to learn a concept which is
[24]
off-balance-sheet financing what exactly this is all about I will show you one in
[28]
extract over here the table the following table summarizes of a
[31]
contractual obligation of borrowing and the timing and the effect of such
[35]
commitments are expected to have on our liquidity and the capital required in
[39]
the future period as you can see over here the operating lease payment or the
[42]
operating lease obligation which is the off-balance sheet financing less than
[45]
1 year 1 to 3 years okay no issues let's understand this in a
[50]
detail format or what exactly this is all about see off-balance sheet
[53]
financing is basically lie aur liability with the first in the foremost that is not
[57]
directly recorded on the balance sheet of the company the off-balance sheet
[61]
financing items you know they carry enough significance because even if they
[64]
are not recorded on the balance sheet finance they are still the liabilities
[69]
and should be included in the overall analysis of the fin position or the
[76]
financial position of the company now how does the off-balance sheet financing
[82]
exactly work let's say suppose ABC manufacturers limited is the is and
[86]
undergoing expansion plan and wants to purchase machinery to establish the
[90]
second unit in another state however it does not having a financing arrangement
[94]
let's say for the same and it and as its balance sheet is already heavily
[98]
financed in such a case you know it has two options it can set up JV or we call
[104]
as a joint venture with the other investor or the company to establish a
[108]
new unit and obtain a fresh financing name of the new entity on the other hand
[112]
it can also check out the long the long term lease agreement with the
[118]
equipment manufacturing for the leasing of machinery and in in this case it
[122]
needs to worry about the obtaining the fresh financing both of the above cases are
[129]
example of the off-balance-sheet financing now what is the purpose what
[132]
is the purpose of balance sheet items of balance sheet at first to maintain the
[138]
solvency ratio like a debt to equity ratio below a certain
[144]
and obtain funding which a company would not have been able to obtain otherwise
[148]
second it will be better of solvency better solvency ratios ensure
[154]
maintaining a good credit rating which in terms allows you know the computer
[157]
access cheaper finance third it makes balance sheet finance appear a linear
[163]
which a prime facie may attract the investors now there are some key
[167]
features of off-balance sheet financing first it results in the reduction or
[174]
what we see is reduction in the existing assets exclusion basically you can say
[182]
that of the assets going to create to be created in the balance sheet second
[187]
there is a change in the Cap structure of the company third the assets and the
[195]
liabilities are both under state under stated and it gives a linear approach or
[201]
impression of the balance sheet finance okay let's discuss the off-balance sheet
[205]
items the first and foremost item that we need to discuss in our list is
[209]
leasing well it is the oldest form of the off-balance sheet financing leasing
[214]
is an asset that allows the company to avoid are showing financing of the asset
[219]
from its liability and lease or rent is directly shown as an expense in the
[223]
profit and loss account so first of that we have for the lease it is the source
[231]
of the off-balance sheet financing as lessor basically where's the the
[237]
financing of the asset and second you can see that the conventional method to
[242]
acquire the asset which requires a large capital outlay third it makes easier to
[248]
upgrade technology with the changing times fourth it makes easier it makes
[254]
easier for for only the operating leases because they qualify as the off-balance
[259]
sheet financing and the financing leases are required to be capitalized on the
[264]
balance sheet as per the latest India's second the SPV which is known as your
[268]
special purpose vehicle that's the special purpose vehicles are the
[271]
subsidiary companies are one of the routine ways of creating the balance
[275]
sheet financing this way are you this this was the way that was used by
[280]
Erron which is known as one of the high-profile off-balance-sheet financing
[284]
exposure controversy the first point on that is you know the parent company
[288]
creates the SPV to enter into the new set of activities but wants to isolate
[293]
itself from the risk and liabilities from the new activities second the
[299]
parent company needs to show the asset and the liability of the SPV on its
[306]
balance sheet third the SPV acts as an independent entity and acquires its own
[316]
credit lines for the new business fourth if the parent company fully owns the SPV
[323]
and under the accounting standards for most countries it needs to we
[328]
consolidated with the SPV balance sheet into its own which defeats the purpose
[332]
for creating the off-balance sheet finance and therefore normally companies
[336]
create SPV by way of new JV which is called as the joint ventures with cement
[340]
the third example for the off-balance sheet financing is the HP that is the
[344]
higher Purchase Agreements you know if a company cannot afford to purchase an
[348]
assets outright or to obtain finance for the same it can enter into the HP at the
[352]
hara hire purchase finance agreement for certain period differences which will
[356]
purchase the assets for the company which in turn will pay the fixed amount
[359]
monthly until all the terms in the contract are fulfilled now the hirer has
[363]
an option of owning the asset at the end of the higher purchase agreement under
[368]
the normally accounting the acid reflux in the balance sheet of the purchaser
[375]
and hirer
[378]
needs not show it in its balance sheet during the period of the airport
[383]
purchase contract gets a balance sheet of it gets a benefit the off-balance
[387]
sheet financing fourth fourth is factoring now it is a type of the credit
[390]
services offered by the banks and other financial institution to their existing
[396]
clients under the factoring financing is obtained by selling account receivables
[401]
to the banks selling account receivables to banks and banks offer immediate cash
[408]
to the company after taking some cut from the accountable receivables for offered
[412]
bringing these services it is also termed as the accelerating of cash flows
[421]
and Third Point on this no there is no direct liability on the company due to
[429]
the factoring but there is a sale of some of the assets right so what exactly
[435]
is the significance this for the investor see the significance is quite
[440]
clear here that you know under the accounting standards for almost all the
[443]
major countries it is mandatory it is mandatory to make full disclosure of all
[448]
the off-balance sheet financing items for the company for the particular year
[452]
so investors should take a note of this and the disclosure to be fully
[455]
understand to fully understand the risk associated with such so that's it know
[459]
for now for the off-balance sheet financing so that's it
