Z″ 7.58 · distress below 1.10, grey to 2.60, safe above.
Z″ factor contributions
X1 Working capital / assets
Short-term liquidity. Carries more weight in Z″ than in classic Z.
0.206.56 × = 1.32X2 Retained earnings / assets
Cushion from years of profits. Share buybacks can push this negative at otherwise healthy firms.
0.733.26 × = 2.39X3 EBIT / assets
Operating return on assets. Highest weight in Z″.
0.166.72 × = 1.10X4 Book equity / liabilities
Book equity versus the liability stack. Sales / assets is omitted so asset-light names are not punished for turnover.
2.641.05 × = 2.78
Five-year path
Need two annual 10-Ks to draw a path. The desk will pull this issuer’s filings rather than invent a series.
