The Altman Z Score is used to predict the likelihood that a business will go bankrupt within the next two years. The formula is based on information found in the income statement and balance sheet of an organization. The Z score is based on the liquidity, profitability, solvency, sales activity, and leverage of the targeted business. Z Score is a useful metric for an outsider who has access to a company's financial statements.
