FUNDAMENTAL RATING
FUNDAMENTAL SCORE
49 / 100
Summary
International Flavors & Fragrances has revenue compounding at -4.34% a year (CAGR, or compound annual growth rate), a multi-year contraction that sets the dominant trend. Latest annual revenue fell 5.2% YoY (year-over-year) and the latest annual net income comparison is NM because the firm swung to a loss of $-359M, so the year-over-year net income figure is not usable. The most recent quarter reported $50M in net income and declined 70.4% QoQ (quarter-over-quarter), confirming near-term softening. The Altman Z-score is 1.20, which sits in the grey zone between the distress threshold of 1.1 and the safe threshold of 2.6. The Piotroski F-Score of 5 on a 0 to 9 quality scale indicates mixed earnings quality, and the short reporting history makes this a provisional read. The next earnings report must show whether net income returns to sustained positive growth or the decline persists.

Data Source
This dashboard applies a modified 9-signal Piotroski F-Score (Piotroski, 2000) and Altman Z-Score models. Fundamental filing data is sourced from the SEC's EDGAR XBRL database (primary), with API Ninjas as backup for freshly-filed 10-Ks not yet in SEC.

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.
