Late or no payment to the
Creditors

It means there is something really wrong with the company’s cash flow and no one really cares about the budgeting. Late or no payments will definitely impact the company’s credit score with long-term consequences in some cases.
Unpaid staff salaries

Less cash flow and more losses
Every company has losses this doesn’t mean that the company is crashing, but if losses happen more often then it’s advisable that the management seeks professional help. All the businesses thrive on profits if there is more outflow than inflows it is bound to have a consequence and reflects the poor financial condition of the company.
Maximum Borrowing
Everyone in business borrows money however if your company has availed all the possible credit facilities it is not a positive indication. Once borrowing becomes a habit and a threshold is reached there comes a point when the banks and other financial institutions refuse further credit to the company it is a strong indicator of the financial mess the company is heading into. However, bounced cheques are a positive indicator of imminent insolvency.
