Methodology
Detection Method: Regex pattern matching on announcement headlines across 6 risk categories. Each category has 5-10 keywords/phrases.
Categories: Going concern (material uncertainty), covenant breach (debt defaults/waivers), litigation (lawsuits/arbitration), regulatory (fines/sanctions), restructuring (impairments/layoffs), fraud/misconduct (investigations/irregularities).
Risk Density: Percentage of a company's announcements that contain risk language. Higher density indicates more frequent risk-related disclosures, not necessarily greater risk severity.
Limitations: Headline-only scanning may miss risk language in announcement bodies. Keyword matching may produce false positives (e.g., "restructuring" in positive contexts). Not all risk language indicates actual material risk — context matters.
This analysis is based on available data and disclosed methodology. Our models estimate outcomes using specific inputs and assumptions — the methodology is described on this page. Observations may not account for all relevant factors. This content is provided for educational and informational purposes only.
