Transmile, Kenmark, Megan Media, Ekran, Linear Corp, Scan Associates, Golden Plus, Dis Technology, Welli Multi and of course Renong Berhad. All are distressed public listed companies which have disappeared.
Will Malaysia Airlines join them ? Good question. Maybe and maybe not.
My sixteen years experience shows that companies rarely go into bankruptcy without some warning. The following are the BEST TOP WARNING SIGNALS which will tell us 99% they are going under. Beware & Stay Away.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Danger Sign No. 1 : Management Scandal. Leaders keep changing.
A serious warning if top guys CEO or CFO take flight suddenly without explanation or give stupid reason such as personal commitement or personal health reason.
Danger Sign No. 2 : A History of Financial Restatements or Late Filings.
Late financial reporting and accounting restatements normally are associated with bad management integity. This was especially characteristic of companies engaging in complex accounting to sweep losses under the rugs and hide liabilities just to drive stock prices higher.
Danger Sign No. 3 : Faster Growth in Accounts Receivable With Flat Growth of Sales.
Faster growth of receivables than growth of sales. The balance sheet is full of rubbish sales with no cash to accrue. Bad companies have serious bad debts, rising receivables and credit downgrade.
Danger Sign No. 4 : Mysterious Growth In Inventories.
Unexpected bumps in inventories relative to sales. Growing inventories could signal a weak customer base, or worse, that the company use suspicious creative accounting to boost value of inventories to offset declining sales.
Danger Sign No. 5 : Mysteriously Bad Cash Flow With Strong Profits And Sales.
Cash flows is the most transparent and is extremely difficult for management to abuse. Bad cash flow normally suggest complex liquidity and smells trouble for the company. If net income is increasing at a faster clip than cash flow, beware. If earnings are rising year to year and cash flow is not, danger! Either way, something’s not right.
Danger Sign No. 6 : Frequent Change Bank Lender And Swim With Loan Sharks.
A company's relationship with its bank and any changes therein is also a useful financial signal. Reduced availability on a company credit line or a frequent change in borrowing patterns may be indicative of financial problems. Increase in loan security and unsecured loan from no-brand-lender are clear evidence of deterioration in the financial health of a business. Finally, the breaching of loan covenants or missed loan payments are clear warning signs that the company requires help.
Danger Sign No. 7 : Three Years Combo Of Sustain Operational Losses And Decline In Sales.
A sustained decline in sales, poor profit margins, losses, increased debt, a highly leveraged balance sheet and negative working capital over twelve straight quarters may be the best cancer signals of a serious financial distress.
Danger Sign No 8 : A Series Of Bad Lucks In A Row
Companies face so many highly improbabale one-time events back-to-back such as a warranty claim, the cancellation of a large order, a huge union strike, an adhoc special operational audit, a sudden uninsured fire or theft, a sudden departure of supplier or a serious change in supplier payments. A failure to explain this event may be some creative accounting management is using to cover operational losses.
