Click cells to compare fundamentals

To calculate a Z-Score, one would need to know a company's current working capital, its total assets and liabilities, and the amount of its latest earnings as well as earnings before interest and tax. Z-Scores can be used to compare the odds of bankruptcy of companies in a similar line of business or firms operating in the same industry. Companies with Z-Scores above 3.1 are generally considered to be stable and healthy with a low probability of bankruptcy. Scores that fall between 1.8 and 3.1 lie in a so-called 'grey area,' with scores of less than 1 indicating the highest probability of distress. Z Score is a used widely measure by financial auditors, accountants, money managers, loan processors, wealth advisers, and day traders. In the last 25 years, many financial models that utilize z-scores proved it to be successful as a predictor of corporate bankruptcy.

The market value of Chesapeake Utilities is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Chesapeake that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Chesapeake Utilities' value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Chesapeake Utilities' true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Chesapeake Utilities' market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Chesapeake Utilities' underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Please note, there is a significant difference between Chesapeake Utilities' value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Chesapeake Utilities is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Chesapeake Utilities' price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
