1 Default Risk and Accounting Measures 2/2 April 27 Conference - Yountville Center for Accounting Research and Education University of Notre Dame Stephen Kealhofer Diversified Credit Investments San Francisco, CA
2 Overview Merton approach to corporate default risk KMV implementation Accounting measures: The fundamental approach Altman[2], Predicting Financial Distress of Companies: Revisiting the Z-Score and Zeta Models Interpreting the fundamental approach using the Merton framework 2
3 Brief history of credit analysis Ratio or fundamental analysis Leverage/coverage Liquidity measures ( quick ratio ) Cash flow analysis Projection of future cash flow versus cash flow requirements Merton approach Focus on: o Market value of underlying asset relative to liabilities o Volatility of market value 3
4 Merton approach Basic idea: Market value, not cash flow, is the appropriate way to look at the firm s ability to pay The approach: Firm market value evolves randomly through time Liabilities are pre-specified and do not change with time Payment default occurs due to inability to pay at the point that firm market value drops below the level of obligations 4
5 KMV: Using the Merton approach Focus on the distance to default Number of standard deviations to the default point Empirically mapped to default probability Successful approach Coherent, cause-and-effect model of credit Empirically out-performs alternatives Implications Default is a capacity not a liquidity event Default can be understood via three primary variables: Market value of business ( asset value ) Amount and structure of debt and non-debt obligations Volatility of the market value of the business ( asset volatility ) Traditional analysis fails to quantitatively address volatility 5
6 Accounting data and default prediction Dominated by Ed Altman s work Z-score Zeta model The idea: Use the traditional accounting ratios to predict default, but do it in a modern statistical construct. (And throw in some other stuff that might help, too) The result: A scoring model based largely on accounting measures that has quite reasonable default predictive ability 6
7 The Z-Score/Zeta model variables Current assets current liabilities Current assets/current liabilities Retained earnings Earnings before interest and taxes EBIT/interest expense Earnings stability : Std error of EBIT/TA around trend Average market value of equity Sales Total assets (used as a scaling variable and to measure size) 7
8 Importance of Altman s variables Regardless of which test statistic is observed, the most important variable is the cumulative profitability ratio, X4 [retained earnings/total asset]. In fact, our scaled vector analysis indicates that this single ratio contributes 25% of the total discrimination. Altman[2] pp
9 Fundamentalist Justification X2, Retained Earnings/Total Assets (RE/TA). Retained earnings is the account which reports the total amount of reinvested earnings and/or losses of a firm over its entire life. The account is also referred to as earned surplus. It should be noted that the retained earnings account is subject to "manipulation" via corporate quasireorganizations and stock dividend declarations. While these occurrences are not evident in this study, it is conceivable that a bias would be created by a substantial reorganization or stock dividend and appropriate readjustments should be made to the accounts. This measure of cumulative profitability over time is what I referred to earlier as a new ratio. The age of a firm is implicitly considered in this ratio. For example, a relatively young firm will probably show a low RE/TA ratio because it has not had time to build up its cumulative profits. Therefore, it may be argued that the young firm is somewhat discriminated against in this analysis, and its chance of being classified as bankrupt is relatively higher than that of another older firm, ceteris paribus. But, this is precisely the situation in the real world. The incidence of failure is much higher in a firm s earlier years. In 993, approximately 5% of all firms that failed did so in the first five years of their existence (Dun & Bradstreet, 994). In addition, the RE/TA ratio measures the leverage of a firm. Those firms with high RE, relative to TA, have financed their assets through retention of profits and have not utilized as much debt. Altman[2] pp - 9
10 Information content of the variables from the standpoint of the Merton approach What can the variables tell us about: Market value of the business? Asset volatility? Liabilities? Some stylized facts: Size is a good predictor of asset volatility Business market value increases with volatility Small businesses have higher values Volatility and earnings are related observation volatility estimator Censoring effect: low vol and negative earnings do not mix well Low volatility firms use more leverage Debt issuance signals lower vol, thus lower value
11 A note on the statistical analysis Accounting ratios are noisy and generally have bad statistical properties I characterize relationships by grouping one variable ( independent ) into ranges with equal populations and calculating the median value of the other variable ( dependent ) for that group Robust Good at demonstrating no relationship Doesn t indicate the strength of the relationship Consistent pattern

38 The Z-Score/Zeta model variables Working capital & current ratio Not much relationship to firm value or volatility Book leverage (total liabilities) Retained earnings & EBIT Strong relationship to volatility; U -shaped value relationship Not much leverage relationship Coverage Primarily volatility related through EBIT Picks up some book leverage effect Average market value of equity Sales Related to firm value Primarily a measure of book leverage Not much relationship to value or volatility Not much relationship to leverage Total assets as a size variable Strong relationship to volatility Some relationship to book leverage, probably induced by volatility 38
39 Some additional findings Retained earnings and age of firm not that related Age variable does not help much in predicting volatility Can construct a reasonable predictor of volatility from accounting variables Size, retained earnings, EBIT, industry Cannot improve current market value as a predictor of future market value using any of these variables Can construct a (noisy) estimate of market value 39
40 Em pirical Volatility vs Accounting Based Volatility Empirical Vol Accounting Vol 4
41 Conclusion Despite fundamentalist predilections, the information content of the accounting variables is often not obvious or intuitive Coverage ratio Much of the value for default prediction comes from describing volatility Why should retained earnings or EBIT be a good volatility predictor? 4
