One of the important changes in the world economies is the increasing significance of the human capital and high emphasis on the Creative Industry. Many companies have been founded within this sector, and like the classic industrial companies, these also need to use models to analyze their financial health and predict their future development. Thus, the Authors decided to verify whether the categorization of the financial situation of the companies based on the Slovak legislative corelate with renowned models like the Altman Z-Score, the IN05 and Creditworthiness Indexes, the Quick Test and the Taffler model. Within the Creative Industry, the Authors targeted the sector of Slovak Architecture and focused on the legislative categorization based on the Acts No. 513/1991 Coll. and 7/2005 of the Commercial Code, as amended. According to the statistical testing results, it was the Quick Test which showed the highest rate of correlation to the legislative Acts. However, the current design of the Quick Test is not sufficient enough to assess the companies in architecture which, based on their results, fall into the so-called grey zone. Therefore, the Authors declare that it might be necessary to form a new predictive model for the assessment of a company’s financial health for the Creative Industry.

Globalization of business environment has brought new challenges and trends. The importance of human capital has been growing especially since the 1990s when the Creative Industry was recognized as a full-fledged component of the national economy. There are a number of models available to analyse the financial health of the companies operating in the Creative Industry. The authors first focused on Acts No. 513/1991 Coll. and 7/2005 of the Commercial Code, as amended, which define the financial health of a company. After applying Altman Z-Score, IN05 and Creditworthiness Index, Quick Test and Binkert and Taffler models, it follows from the results that Quick Test shows the highest level of agreement with the legislative definition of a non-prosperous company. Therefore, the authors decided to analyse this predictive model further. The results of their study show that, while very reliable for the category of non-prosperous companies, the model does not achieve sufficient reliability for other categories, the average/grey zone in particular. Based on the results of the study, the authors conclude that a new predictive model to assess a company’s financial health is necessary.

The present study is mainly devoted to the bankruptcy prediction models and their ability to assess a bankruptcy probability for oil drilling and exploration sector of Indian. The study puts an effort to determine the financial health of 12 selected companies from this sector of India for a period of 5 years. These companies serve the backbone of many other industries such as transport industry, manufacturing industry, automobile industry and so on of the Indian economy. The study has taken the reference of Altman’s Z-score model, where ratios such as working capital to total asset, retained earnings to total asset, earnings before interest and tax to total assets, market value of equity to book value of debt and sales to total assets have been taken. The discriminant analysis is conducted to validate the outcomes of Altman’s model to predict group membership and to forecast the overall industry condition. The study reveals that 75 per cent of the companies are in financially healthy zone. The results indicate that working capital/total assets can very well explain the Z-score. The research on financial health using Altman’s score is very limited in Indian context. Therefore, this study will add value to the existing body of literature for financial risk.

The aim of this paper is to present application of different methods used for predicting bankruptcy of large agricultural and food companies in AP Vojvodina, as well as to determine which model is the most suitable for analyzing the companies from the observed sectors. The following three models were applied in the paper: Altman's Z'-score model, Kralicek DF indicators and Kralicek Quick test. The analysis included five companies from the agricultural sector and five companies from the food sector operating on the territory of AP Vojvodina in the period from 2015 to 2019. The results of the research based on the applied models showed that different conclusions can be made about the financial stability of the observed companies. Altman's Z'-score model provided the most rigorous forecast in terms of the bankruptcy risk, while the results of Kralicek DF indicators and Quick test are relatively similar.

The ability to predict a company's financial health is a challenge for many researchers and scientists. It is also a distracting topic, as many other new approaches to financial health predictions have emerged in recent years. In this paper, we focused on identifying the financial health of mining companies in the Czech Republic. We chose the neural network method because, based on various instances of related research, neural networks represent a more reliable financial forecast than mathematical-statistical methods such as discriminant analysis and logistic regression. The concept of a neural network emerged with the first artificial neural networks, inspired by biological systems. The existence of prediction and classification problems directly predetermines artificial neural networks with respect to a given issue. We used the Amadeus database for processing, including financial indicators, SPSS, and Visual Gene Developer software. In total, we analyzed sixty-four mining companies. Complete data on financial stability were available for fifty-three companies, which we explored, and based on these results, identified financial situations for the other thirteen. Based on the available information, we processed a neural network and regression analysis. We managed to classify thirteen companies as solvent, insolvent, and in the grey zone, with the help of prediction.
