Local technology sector plays a significant role in information and communication technology (ICT) based innovations and applications which enhance organizational performance as well as national economic growth and labor productivity. In this paper, financial performance of the listed Malaysia companies in technology sector is analyzed and evaluated. Altman’s Z-score model is proposed due to its robustness in determining companies’ financial distress level using five financial ratios as variables. The computed Z-score values classify the financial status of the companies into distress, grey and safe zones. This study investigates the financial data of 23 listed technology-based companies in the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia over the period of 2013 to 2017. The findings reveal that the percentage of safe zone companies increase throughout the five years whereas distress zone companies decline. It is concluded that financial ratio for market value of equity to total liabilities is the dominant factor that directly influences the level of financial distress among these technology-based companies in Malaysia. These research outcomes provide an insight to investors or policy makers to develop future planning in order to avoid financial failure in local technology sector.

This research aims to know the financial performance of companies with the Altman Z-Score Model in the Automotive Sub-Sector Manufacturing Companies Listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2016-2018. The research method used in this study is a descriptive method with data analysis techniques using the financial ratio method. The results showed that PT. Astra International Tbk, PT. Astra Otoparts Tbk, PT. Gajah Tunggal Tbk and PT. Indospring Tbk is safe from the threat of bankruptcy, while the highest average Z-Score is achieved by PT Selamat Sempurna Tbk and the lowest average Z-Score is achieved by PT Indomobil Sukses International Tbk. Thus, the Company is expected to maintain company liquidity, restructure debt, minimize receivables, increase profit levels and maximize marketing in order to increase sales so that the potential for financial distress in the company can be minimized.

Early thought systems are needed in companies to overcome financial difficulties that can challenge industrial operations. Altman Z Score is one model that can be used to predict financial distress in a company by analyzing the company's financial statements. This research was conducted to analyze financial distress in property companies going public using the Altman Z Score model. In this model there are 5 financial ratio indicators that are used to predict financial distress. The financial report data used is the financial statements for 2015-2016 and there are 23 companies. The results of these calculations are then clustered with Fuzzy C-Means in two, namely safe zone and gray zone. Cluster validation testing uses the Silhouetee Index with a validation value of 0.9541 which indicates that the cluster process is valid. The results of this study indicate that there is one company that is included in the cluster gray zone, namely Intiland Development Tbk. Analysis of financial ratios found that the most influential is the variable X3 where the results of profits before tax are very small can affect payment of obligations. So it's easy to bring up financial distress conditions. And for those companies that have been in the gray zone condition, they are expected to be careful in financial management to anticipate financial distress.

The purpose of this study is to compare three financial failure models: the Altman Z-Score Model, the Springate Model, and the Zmijewski Model, in terms of predicting financial difficulty among airlines in Asia and the Middle East. Based on the results of this study, it is proven by the result of the analysis done for Airlines in Asia and the Middle East that all the three models have predicted that these companies are in financial distress. But, the Altman Z-Score model is the most significant model to forecast financial distress. Although the models employ different ratios in their analyses, this study demonstrates that there is a substantial difference in the analysis of these three models. Another independent T-test demonstrates that the Altman Z-Score Model and the Zmijewski Model, as well as the Springate Model and the Zmijewski Model, have substantial differences. The study employed a descriptive and comparative analysis method, and this model was created to compare the independent variables. The Altman Z-Score model is the most significant model for predicting the financial failure of enterprises, according to the descriptive analysis in this study. While the comparison findings show a large difference between the Altman Z-Score Model and the Zmijewski Model, there is also a significant difference between the Springate Model and the Zmijewski Model. The Altman Z-Score Model and the Springate Model, on the other hand, imply that there is no significant model.

This research aims to figure out the level of companies bankruptcy by applying Altman Z-Score at the manufacturing companies registered in the Indonesia Stocks Exchange. The result of the research has indicated that ZScore model is applicable to detect the company’s potential bankruptcy issues, especially manufacturing company subsectors of cosmetics and houseappliances. Altman Z-Score model has classified the companies into three categories; safe, grey area and distress. Based on the result of the research, for the companies which are in the grey area category are suggested to improve their financial performance and to use the benefit of all the assets properly to get the revenue as much as possible. However, for the companies which are in the safe category are suggested to increase their performance, especially marketing performance so that they will receive bigger amount of the revenue, nevertheless, the potential of financial distress can be minimized accordingly. Keywords: manufacturing company, financial distress, Altman Z-Score.

AbstractIn this paper, we follow Anderson et al. (2009) and suggest a simple approach to employ a set of financial ratios as inputs to estimate an aggregate bankruptcy index (ABI). This index is a within sample measure, ranges between 0 and 1, and ranks the firms on the basis of their relative financial distress. ABI can be used to predict the propensity of financial failure and corporate bankruptcy. For the purpose of comparison and assessment of the robustness of this index, we estimate Z-score by multivariate discriminant analysis, using the same set of financial ratios to compare the predictive accuracy of two approaches.We find that, to some extent, ABI can predict the bankruptcy of the firms more accurately than Z-score. The empirical results of the paper suggest that ABI has relatively robust predictive power and, therefore, can be applied together with other, based on parametric and non-parametric models to predict corporate bankruptcy.
