Altman with Gaurav Bana February 2003 Dr. Altman is the Max L. Heine Professor of Finance and Vice Director of the NYU Salomon Center, Leonard N. Stern School of Business.

Finally, this report benefits from the assistance of Amit Arora, Shubin Jha, Deepak-Iyer Ramamurthy and Lourdes Tanglao of the NYU Salomon Center. Defaults and Returns on High Yield Bonds: The Year 2002 in Review and the Market Outlook Edward I. Altman with Gaurav Bana • In 2002, the high yield bond market experienced record corporate bond defaults and corporate bankruptcies and the default rate in the high yield bond market easily topped the previously high record year of 1991. • A record $96.9 billion of US straight corporate high yield bonds defaulted resulting in a 12.8% dollar denominated default rate – considerably greater than 1991’s 10.3%. The fourth quarter’s default rate of 1.82% was, however, a noticeable reduction. • Large corporate bankruptcies with liabilities greater than $100 million dropped in number from 2001’s record year but the total liabilities of those 122 filings were $337 billion – more than $100 billion greater than last year; 38 filings topped $1 billion in 2002, bringing the last two years total to 77.
