At this time, GDI Integrated's Net Debt is very stable compared to the past year. As of the 27th of November 2024, Short Term Debt is likely to grow to about 52.5 M, while Short and Long Term Debt Total is likely to drop about 236.8 M. At this time, GDI Integrated's Inventory Turnover is very stable compared to the past year. As of the 27th of November 2024, Net Income Per Share is likely to grow to 0.85, while Price To Sales Ratio is likely to drop 0.33.
At this time, GDI Integrated's M Score is inapplicable. The earnings manipulation may begin if GDI Integrated's top management creates an artificial sense of financial success, forcing the stock price to be traded at a high price-earnings multiple than it should be. In general, excessive earnings management by GDI Integrated executives may lead to removing some of the operating profits from subsequent periods to inflate earnings in the following periods. This way, the manipulation of GDI Integrated's earnings can lead to misrepresentations of actual financial condition, taking the otherwise loyal stakeholders on to the path of questionable ethical practices and plain fraud.

GDI Integrated Beneish M-Score Indicator Trends

The cure to earnings manipulation is the transparency of financial reporting. It will typically remove the temptation of the top executives to inflate earnings (i.e., to promote the idea of 'winning at any cost'). Because a healthy internal audit department can enhance transparency, the board should promote the auditors' access to all the record-keeping systems across the enterprise. For example, if GDI Integrated's auditors report directly to the board (not management), the managers will be reluctant to manipulate simply due to the fear of punishment. On the other hand, the auditors will be free to investigate the ledgers properly because they know that the board has their back.

About GDI Integrated Beneish M Score

M-Score is one of many grading techniques for value stocks. It was developed by Professor M. Daniel Beneish of the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University and published in 1999 under the paper titled The Detection of Earnings Manipulation. The Beneish score is a multi-factor model that utilizes financial identifiers to compile eight variables used to classify whether a company has manipulated its reported earnings. The variables are built from the officially filed financial statements to create a final score call 'M Score.' The score helps to identify companies that are likely to manipulate their profits if they show deteriorating gross margins, operating expenses, and leverage against growing revenue.

GDI Integrated Earnings Manipulation Drivers

Although earnings manipulation is typically not the result of intentional misconduct by the c-level executives, it is still a widespread practice by the senior management of public companies such as GDI Integrated. It is usually done by a series of misrepresentations of various accounting rules and operating activities across multiple financial cycles. The best way to spot the manipulation is to examine the historical financial statement to find inconsistencies in earning reports to find trends in assets or liabilities that are not sustainable in the future.
