Trend: Negative but improving from -0.50 in 2019 to -0.06 in 2024.
Insight: The company has been operating at a loss, but losses are
gradually decreasing.
2. Total Asset Turnover:
Trend: Low and fluctuating, with improvement from 0.07 in 2021 to

been weak but is improving.
3. Equity Multiplier:
Trend: Highly volatile, peaking at 215.51 in 2020 and turning
negative (-55.98) in 2024.
Insight: The company is heavily leveraged, indicating high financial
risk, especially with the negative equity multiplier in 2024.
4. Return on Equity (ROE):
Trend: Negative throughout but improves to a positive 0.64 in
2024.
Insight: The company has been struggling to generate returns on
equity, though recent years show a positive shift.
The company has shown financial
improvement over the years, particularly in
EBIT, market capitalization, and sales efficiency.
However, the persistent negative retained
earnings ratio and the overall "Distressed"
classification indicate ongoing financial risks.
The improvement in Altman’s Z-Score suggests
that the company is moving in the right
direction, though it remains in a precarious
financial position.
Altman Z-Score
The KZ Index indicates that the company
experienced varying degrees of financial
constraints over the years, with the most
significant constraints in March 2020 (KZ Score:
12.61).
By March 2024, the company's financial
constraints appear to have significantly reduced,
as reflected in the negative KZ Score (-12.64).
The Market Cap shows strong growth, particularly
from 2022 to 2024, reflecting positive market
sentiment or improved financial performance.
Despite the positive trends in market cap and
cashflows, the negative Tobin’s Q in March 2024
may suggest underlying concerns in asset
valuation or market perception
