Summary Financial statements facilitate the communication between corporations and various stakeholders. The integrity, stability, and transparency of such communication help to preserve Hong Kong as a top global financial centre. To many laypersons, looking through financial statements can be like reading novels in a foreign language, with a sea of jargon obscuring the statements' true meaning. This book offers a clear, concise reference for analysing corporations' financial statements. Based on the evaluations of published financials, this book is a convenient standalone guide for both novices and financial professionals - in the boardroom and beyond
