The D&B Rating
D&B Rating - The D&B rating consists of two parts, the Financial Strength Indicator and the Risk
Indicator.
For example: in the case of a 2A 4 rating, 2A means the financial strength of the business and the 4 is the risk
indicator.
The Risk Indicator is used in conjunction with the Financial Strength Indicator. The Risk Indicator reflects D&B's
opinion of the risk associated with trading with a specific business, notably the likelihood of business continuance
or failure over the next 12 months. Created from expert rules systems, the Risk Indicator is refreshed whenever
data is loaded onto our databases. Please see the table below for the Risk Indicators and their corresponding
values.
Risk Indicators
4 Significant
level of risk
Take suitable
assurances before
extending credit
Assigned to concerns of known financial weakness. A number of
years losses, higher than normal working capital deficit, a
negative tangible net worth which is the worsening, court
judgements, bad payments etc. This risk is associated with
being a creditor of these concerns is high or significant
3 Greater than
average risk
Proceed with
transaction but
monitor closely
Assigned to concerns believed to be financially sound but with a
history of slow payments or some losses or working capital
deficit. The risk associated with being a creditor of these
concerns is higher and would be classified as potentially slow
payers or fair trade risk
2 Low risk Proceed with
transaction
This is assigned to financially sound concerns, having no known
record of bad payments and paying suppliers quickly. The risk
associated with being a creditor of these concerns would be low
and they would be classified as ordinary trade risk
1 Minimal risk Proceed with
transaction - offer
terms required
Assigned to companies of undoubted credit standing and
financially strength. The risk associated with being a creditor of
these concerns would be negligible or zero, the concern which
pays bills promptly or discount.
- Insufficient
information
to assign a
risk indicator
No public information
or D&B proprietary
information available
to indicate trading
activity
Assigned to concerns where there is insufficient information to
express any opinion on the condition, financial soundness or
payment history of the concern. A concern with no telephone
number will also be assigned a "-" condition

Solvency
Ratio
(%)
((Total Current +

Term Liabilities) /
Tangible Net
Worth) x 100
From this can be seen the extent to which the company is financed by creditors
and debt rather than permanent finance.
The higher the ratio the more likely it is that the debt (either short term or long
term) will be a burden to the company. The effect is higher interest changes,
lower profits and a squeeze on liquidity to the disadvantage of creditors.
Fixed
Assets to
Net
Worth
(%)
(Total Fixed Assets
/ Tangible Net
Worth) x 100
The proportion of net worth that consists of fixed assets will vary greatly from
industry to industry, but in general terms a company is under capitalised if fixed
assets exceed net worth. In this case it is possible that the company has too
much debt, and it should therefore be examined with care.
If on the other hand fixed assets are much lower than net worth the company is
over capitalised and is either extremely cautious or in a position to expand. Thus
a ratio either well in excess of the median, or well below it, means that the
company should be looked at with care.
Current
Liabilities
to Net
Worth
(%)
(Total Current
Liabilities /
Tangible Net
Worth) x 100
This contrasts the funds that creditors are temporarily risking with a company
with the funds permanently invested by the owners.
The higher the ratio the less security for creditors. Care should be exercised
when selling to any company with creditors of less than one year exceeding two
thirds of net worth
Asset
Turnover
(%)
(Turnover / Total
Assets(including
intangibles)) x 100
This ratio measures how efficiently the company's management has been in
generating sales from the assets at its disposal.
The measure can vary considerably from industry to industry and should
therefore be judged according to the industry norm.
Sales to
net
working
capital
(x)
Turnover / Net
working capital
This ratio indicates whether a company is overtrading (handing an excessive
volume of sales in relation to working capital). Companies with substantial sales
gains often reach a level where their working capital becomes strained.
Even if they maintain an adequate total investment for the volume being
generated (assets to sales) that investment may be so centred in fixed assets or
other non-current items that it will be difficult to continue meeting all current
obligations. A ratio falling into either an extremely high or low position may
indicate potential problems.
