A company’s ability to pay short term liabilities with its cash on hand.
•Current assets is the cash that a company has on hand for the upcoming year.
•Current liabilities are amounts of money due to be paid to creditors within the next year
Sibanye Stillwater’s current Ratio is at:
R 52 242 600 000 ÷ R17 487 100 00 =
2.98 (extremely excellent)
#SSW has enough liquidity to cover short term obligations, in fact, more than enough- almost 3 times over.
•Shareholders’ Equity
If the company went bust today, it’s how much equity would be left after the deal. (Net Worth)
You find this information on a balance sheet, and it shows you how investable a company is. It will show you what price you are paying for the company.
$SSW shareholder’s equity is:
Total assets = R134 103 100 000
Total liabilities = R 63 387 100 000
*Minus minority interest. (Subsidiaries) - (watch video at the end to understand this).
Equity = R 68 billion 480 million.
•Earnings Per Share
shows us what portion of a company’s profit is allocated to each outstanding share.
Companies profit ÷ outstanding shares.
$SSW EPS =
R29billion ÷ 2 923 571 000
= 10
So for every share, $SSW Earns R10 in profits.
Negative earnings is a NO NO
•P/E ratio
To work out the P/E ratio you need to know the EPS.
The higher the P/E ratio, supposedly the more overvalued it is.
The lower the P/E , supposedly the more neglected it is.
Higher P/E’s demand higher earnings.
$SSW P/E ratio =
R65.70 ÷ 10
= 6.57
•Return on Equity (ROE)
ROE measures the profitability in relation to equity.
Basically, a return on assets (minus) all liabilities.
You want to see between 15%- 20% for it to be considered decent.
R29billion ÷R68billion 480 million
=42% (extremely attractive)
•Return on Assets (ROA)
ROA indicates how profitable a company is relative to its total assets.
Shows us how efficient management is at using a it’s assets to generate earnings.
$SSW ROA =
R29 311 900 000 ÷ R134 103 100 000 =
21.85%
Alright, I’ve done my homework on #SSW and I want in. Numbers look attractive,
• Pay dividends
• Growing revenue
• High in Liquidity
Let me explain the difference between RSA Retail Savings Bonds and tradable South African bonds.

** Glossary **
𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗱:
A bond is a debt security. You can think of it as an I-O-U.
You lend money to someone, and then they promise to pay that money back to you + interest.
𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆:
Refers to the date on which the bond issuer (debtor) pays back everything they owe to bondholders ( creditor ).
1/ Introduction
When it comes to bonds there are two markets one can opt to participate in:
🟠 The Primary Market
🟠 The Secondary Market
The primary market is where you 𝗯𝘂𝘆 𝗶𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 but then cannot sell it to someone else because there is no secondary market for it.
𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 and this is what makes them different from tradable government bonds.
𝗢𝗽𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁,
Tradable government bonds have a secondary market where they can be traded or held to maturity.
This means you can sell it when you want to, but it also means you can potentially lose money if the bond price has fallen lower than your original purchase price.
With tradable government bonds, you are 𝘀𝘂𝗯𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸.
*Unsettled funds going into 𝗚𝗙𝗘𝗖𝗥𝗔, means funds that entered into the account and had no purpose, they weren’t allocated or spent to anything specific.

The beer soon became a hit that Charles and his wife, Lisa, decided to set up their brewery in the business centre of the town to capture the influx of fortune seekers coming to Witwatersrand Reef.
The phrase “𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗿𝘂𝘀𝗵, 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀”, seems more appropriate here”.
His beer brew took some time to gain traction, it was only when Charles Glass’s new beer, 𝗖𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝗲𝗲𝗿, was introduced that he won the miners over and secured the market.
It was in 1884 that Castle’s famous label, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲-𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝗱.
