Tenderers must achieve a D & B (or equivalent credit rating report) score no lower than 10 and a risk indicator score no lower than 3. Additionally in making an assessment, the Authority will also consider the following standard ratios in combination, as measures of the Tenderer's (or its guarantor's) financial standing: Tenderers must achieve the following low risk ratio scores: 1. Financial Sustainability / Net Asset Value: Whether the Tenderer (or any guarantor) can demonstrate stable trading and strong net assets position, including whether it has consistently made a profit over each of the last two financial years (or the number of years of trading if less than two years); A minimum ratio score of > Nil is required to pass this test. 2. Liquidity/Acid Ratio: Whether the Tenderer (or any guarantor) can demonstrate a low risk liquidity and cash position, typically showing a current ratio value of >1 over each of the last two financial years (or the number of years of trading if less than two years). 3. Scale/Turnover: That the indicative contract value does not form a disproportionate proportion of the Tenderer's (or any guarantor's) business, typically that the Tenderer's annual turnover is at least twice the indicative contract value . 4. Operating Margin: An indication of the Tenderers profitability and sustainability and ability to withstand any change in business and financial circumstances. A score of >10% is required. 5. Free Cash Flow to Net Debt Ratio. Provides an indication of what percentage of the Tenderers debt could be repaid in one year if all free cash flow was used to repay debt. A score of >15% is required. 6. Net Debt/EBITAD. Provides an indication of how many years it would take a Tenderer to repay net debt if EBITAD (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) remained constant and was used in full to repay financial debt. A ratio score of < 2.5 x is required.",
