First Altman Model (1968)
According to Altman (1968) in The Journal of Finance, the systematic Altman Z-Score formula can be formulated as follows:
Z = 1.2X1 + 1.4X2 + 3.3X3 + 0.6X4 + 1.0X5
Information:
X1 = Net Working Capital / Total Assets
X2 = Retained Earning / Total Assets
X3 = Earning Before Interest and Tax / Total Assets
X4 = Market Value of Equity / Book Value of Debt
X5 = Sales / Total Assets
According to Endri (2009) the financial ratios of Altman Z-Score can be summarized as follows:

The First Altman Z-Score Analysis (1968)
According to Altman (1968) in The Journal of Finance, Z-Score Altman model is a model by predicting or classifying companies to determine the level of health based on the value of Z obtained. Systematically Altman Z-Score equations can be formulated as follows:
Z = 1.2X1 + 1.4X2 + 3.3X3 + 0.6X4 + 1.0X5
Information:
X1 = Net Working Capital / Total Assets
X2 = Retained Earning / Total Assets
X3 = Earning Before Interest and Tax / Total Assets
X4 = Market Value of Equity / Book Value of Debt
X5 = Sales / Total Assets
Company classification based on Z value obtained are:
• If Z> 2.99, then enter into healthy company.
• If Z <1.81, then enter into a company that has the potential to go bankrupt.
• If Z is between 1.81 and 2.99 the firm goes into the gray area (possibly the company can bounce back or potentially
One firm we are familiar with had gross sales in 1979 of ninety-six million dollars and proceeded to develop a worst case scenario in 1982-3 at a gross sales level of thirty-six million dollars.

Growth and Value Creation at Sunflower Nutraceuticals Sunflower Nutraceuticals (SNC) is a nutraceuticals distributor based in Miami, Florida. Prior to 2012, SNC had flat annual sales growth with total revenues of $10 million and had been experiencing financing issues due to its thin margins and high working capital intensity. Miami Dade Merchant’s Bank (MDM) was SNC’s previous financier, but refused to increase SNC’s line of credit of $3.2 million, which was limiting SNC’s ability to grow because of the working capital constraints. In 2012, SNC decided to accept an alternative financing option from Averell & Tuttle (AT), an investment bank. AT provided SNC with a line of credit of $3.7 million at a 10% interest rate for a 10% equity stake.

This is not likely to be an issue for them because sufficient amounts of cash is probably collected daily through the checkouts. On the other hand, the airline industry, a low current ratio may not necessarily mean that a company is in peril.
