    Short-term liquidity versus the size of the balance sheet.

    0.28
    1.2 × = 0.34

  • X2 Retained earnings / assets

    Cushion from years of profits. Share buybacks can push this negative at otherwise healthy firms.

    0.31
    1.4 × = 0.43

    Operating return on assets. Highest weight in the original model.

    0.11
    3.3 × = 0.35

  • X4 Book equity / liabilities
