Section 1 – Understanding the problem
The Altman Z-score bankruptcy combines warning signals ratios and
confirms that companies are seeking help late
Altman Z score analysis
ALTMAN Z-SCORE OF 4 ADVISED COMPANIES BY PwC
3,5
3,0
Financially
sound
• All restructuring projects and appointment of
an external advisor were initiated by the
financing banks when the companies were
mostly in difficulties
“Grey zone”
• For all cases, PwC has been appointed at the
moment when the companies displayed
severe warning signals (Altman Z-score zone
of likelihood of bankruptcy)
2,5
2,0
1,5
• Company with the worse Altman Z-score
(company nr 2) went into formal
restructuring process (insolvency), the other
companies were subject to informal
restructuring

Section 1 – Understanding the problem
Besides the warning signals the debt capacity assessment is a main driver
avoiding risk of indebtedness
Debt capacity quantification
Net debt/EBITDA
<4.0x
Debt service coverage
ratio (DSCR)
>1.2x
Company capacity to service the debt
Net debt / EBITDA = (interest bearing
liabilities - cash) / EBITDA
DSCR = net operating income / total debt services
Interest coverage = EBIT / interest expense
LLCR = NPV of Cash flow Available for Debt
Service ("CFADS") / Outstanding Debt
Interest

Collateral - value (valuation report, NBV, GBV),
type ( current / non-current asset), characteristics
(liquidity of the collateral), defined x undefined
(building x WIP)
LTV (Loan-to-Value) – loan value to appraised
value of the property
Bank´s acceptance of available debt security
