Warning signs

2 flagged
  • Bankruptcy model reads distressed The Altman score sits inside the range historically associated with financial distress. It is used here only to exclude, never to rank, and it is a statistical band rather than a prediction about this company.
  • Heavily indebted Net debt is 4.6 times EBITDA — roughly 5 years of earnings before interest, tax and depreciation to repay borrowings in full.
