Which four dimensions does the health card check?
Which four dimensions does the health card check?
The traffic-light card condenses balance-sheet and income-statement metrics into four signals: Cash Runway (months of operating cash), Altman Z solvency score, 3-year share dilution CAGR and 4-quarter gross-margin slope, rated Green, Amber or Red.
How to read each financial signal
Cash runway measures how many months cash reserves cover operating burn; Altman Z combines working capital, retained earnings and leverage to gauge distress risk; dilution tracks share-count expansion; margin slope tracks profitability momentum.
Method
Rule-based traffic-light grading across cash runway months, Altman Z″ score, 3-year share count CAGR and 4-quarter gross margin slope. Altman Z″ uses X4 = book equity ÷ total liabilities, never market capitalization.
