Bearish
48 / 100
Summary
HP Inc. shows an Altman Z-score of 1.74, which sits below the distress threshold of 1.81 and flags near-term solvency risk. Revenue compounded at -4.3% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate) and net income compounded at -7.6% a year, signaling multi-year contraction in the income statement. Latest annual revenue rose 3.2% (YoY, or year-over-year) while latest annual net income fell 8.9% (YoY). The most recent quarter reported $661M in net income and improved QoQ (quarter-over-quarter) by 46.9%, an encouraging short-term uptick that contrasts with the three-year decline. The Piotroski F-Score of 5 on a 0 to 9 quality scale indicates mixed earnings quality. With limited clarity on balance-sheet coverage in the input, the critical question is whether upcoming results show sustained net income recovery and an improving solvency profile.

Formula & Methodology
Trend inputAnnual revenue and net income year-over-year direction contributes 20% of the score.
Piotroski inputModified 9-test Piotroski F-Score (Quality) contributes 40% of the score.
Altman inputAltman Z-Score (Distress) contributes 40% of the score.
Rating ruleFormula: Trend (20%) + Piotroski F-Score (40%) + Altman Z-Score (40%). Trend blends annual revenue and net income year-over-year direction. Piotroski is the modified 9-test variant (7 classic + 2 cash-flow tests). Altman uses the 1968 Z-Score with Safe/Grey/Distress zones. Combined blend uses ±0.45 thresholds: Bullish at +0.45 or higher, Bearish at -0.45 or lower, Neutral in between. Missing sub-signals count as Neutral (0) and weights are not re-normalized — a company with fewer available signals must earn its rating from stronger reads on the remaining pillars.
