What is an Altman Z score?
Our Altman Z Score calculator understands which manufacturers are financially stable, and which players are at risk of going bankrupt. For any stakeholder involved in solar projects, the financial stability of your solar project’s PV Modules, Inverters, and Energy Storage Systems manufacturer is of crucial importance as employing PV components from financially stable manufacturers provides a better hedge against the potential risks of collapsing return on investment (ROI) of any PV project.
Why is the financial stability of solar panel manufacturers important?
Ultimately, the financial stability of a PV manufacturer is geared toward the validity and enforceability of the warranty policies on their products. Most people realize that today’s Energy Storage and Inverter manufacturers will probably not be around in 25 years. However, for the short to medium term, you want to ensure warranties are in place.
Many PV projects will likely face this tough question in through the years: whom to contact with performance complaints or solar panel efficiency complaints and replacement requests regarding malfunctioning battery energy storage systems or inverters after 2, 5, or even 10 years?
In these reports, we present you the Altman Z Scores of 40+ energy storage & 30+ solar inverter manufacturers & 70+ PV module manufacturers. These reports can be used to see how one manufacturer matches up to the other and can be an important indicator when selecting your PV module, energy storage, or inverter manufacturer. The Altman Z Scores show you which manufacturers are financially strong, and which manufacturers are in the risk zone of going bankrupt within the coming 2 years.
What is a good Altman Z score?
Altman Z score interpretation: A score below 1.1 is called a Distress Zone, meaning it’s likely the company is headed for bankruptcy, while companies with scores above 2.6 are in the Safety Zone, financially stable, and not likely to go bankrupt.
Note that companies that have been in the Grey Zone for years may be very stable!
It’s essential to spot the trend and see where a company is heading.
