Tintri, Inc., a cloud management services provider, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy about one year after launching its initial public offering. While the company was viewed as a high growth business in late 2017, our FRISK® score indicated that the operator was financially distressed and had an elevated probability of bankruptcy. It wasn't long before the growth story derailed following employee turnover and reduced confidence for contract renewals by customers.
As detailed in this Bankruptcy Case Study, CreditRiskMonitor's proprietary subscriber crowdsourcing was a factor that helped identify financial trouble at this company. Our subscribers' unique research patterns on our web-service were indicative of heightened concern and increased risk. Other important financial factors are also addressed, including the company's persistent cash burn and high financial leverage.
Tintri, Inc.'s elevated bankruptcy risk was signaled well in advance by our proprietary FRISK® score.
