Cover Story: In today’s world, company performance measured by advanced economic value is a significant financial management problem. Traditional one-factor models with Gaussian distribution and point prediction are usually insufficient. Correct probability distribution forecasting is a necessary assumption for successful performance. Therefore, an advanced approach is proposed based on the multi-factor exact pyramid decomposed function combined with inverse Gaussian distribution, t-copula interdependencies, skew t-regression estimation of financial ratios as well as using the simulation Monte Carlo forecasting method. The proposed model is verified on automotive sector data from a small open economy. Precision distribution tests confirmed the superiority of the decomposed approach by comparing it with a one-factor prediction for particular data. View this paper
