But what＇s the influence of such a model on corporate profitability and risk？ Are similar financial models free lunches？ To seek for the answers to the above questions, in this paper, we take Gree （GREE Electric Appliances, Inc. of Zhuhai）, Midea （Guangdong Midea Electric Appliances Co. Ltd. Stores） and GOME for examples to carry out a comprehensive and in depth financial analysis. The conclusions of this paper are： The company with similar financial characteristics has higher profitability and risk level; Only the companies which meet special requirements need or can implement such a model and the identification and control of hidden risk can guarantee its success.展开更多

Then we use t-test and nonparametric test to explore the differences between the two sub-samples in cash management, assets and liabilities structures, assets turnover ratios, profitability, liquidity and growth rates. The results show that the former has shorter Cash Conversion Cycle （CCC）, quicker assets turnover, higher Debt Ratio （DR）, higher growth rate and thus has better profitability. In addition, the regression analysis results further demonstrate that Return on Invested Capital （ROIC） of similar-financial-model firms are positively related to Net Profit Margin （NPM） （p 〈 0.01）, and negatively to CCC （p 〈 0.01）, Interest Expense Ratio （IER） （p 〈 0.01）, the Ratio of Interest-Bearing Debt to Total Liabilities （IBDR） （p 〈 0.01） and the ratio of Net Receivables to Sales Revenue （NRSR） （p 〈 0.01）. Moreover, negative relationship between ROIC and dummy variable GROUP implies that the former has better profitability than the latter.展开更多
