I've been sharing some of the work from an accounting-based distress model I built the Hertz retrospective, the Beyond Meat analysis, the methodology discussion. A few people asked if I could run it on specific companies they're looking at.
So: name a company below and I'll post a full breakdown of the key credit metrics leverage trajectory, interest coverage, ROA trend, liquidity position, and anything structurally interesting — directly in this thread. No paywall, no signup. If you want it formatted as a PDF report I'll send it to you directly.
The analysis is purely from public financial statements. I'm not making a buy or sell recommendation — just running the same forensic framework I applied to Hertz (41.6 score, flagged May 2019, filed May 2020) and Beyond Meat (76 score, $1.1B in notes due March 2027) on whatever you want to look at.
US non-financial companies work best. Drop the ticker.
