About Beneish M Score
The Beneish M Score helps to uncover companies who are likely to be manipulating their reported earnings. Companies with a higher score are more likely to be manipulators. This is a probabilistic model, so it will not detect manipulators with 100% accuracy.
The best cut-off point depends on the costs mistakenly classifying in one of two ways:
1) Classifying firm that is manipulating earnings as a non-manipulator (Type I error), and
2) Classifying a firm as a manipulator when it actually was not manipulating (Type II Error).
Here are optimal cut-offs according to Beneish, presented as the score followed by the cost of Type I error relative to cost of Type II error):
M Score HTML Table:
| Score | Relative Error Costs (Type I:Type II) |
|---|---|
| M Score > -1.49 | (10:1) | M Score > -1.78 | (20:1) | M Score > -1.89 | (40+:1) |
Beneish excluded financial institutions from his sample when calculating the M-Score, so extreme care should be taken when looking at M-Scores of financial firms - their business models are different from the manufacturing and other service firms that Beneish used in his study.

@codytrades the bid-ask spread was insane when $HKN was at 5.28. that prevented me from shorting it. Anyway.! congrats on the perfect short.

There goes $HKN, 4.88 now from 5.30s this morning. Enter your bids beforehand if you're shorting this as it's hard to get a decent fill.

There goes $HKN. Enter your bids beforehand if you're shorting this as it's very hard to get a decent fill otherwise.

I think it's just a matter of time now before $HKN takes a nose dive, 5.30+ good short opp. Very thinly traded, needs to be a tiny position.
