I have and & TEXT formula that makes a statement like:

Month: 5.1 Chg YTD -2.5

In the &TEXT formula, how do I format the numbers so that all negative
value's will show in red. Below is my formula:
=B5&TEXT(" ",0)&TEXT(C5,"0.0")&TEXT(" ",0)&E5&TEXT("
",0)&TEXT(F5,"0.0%")

No need for those extra TEXT parts

=B5&" "&TEXT(C5,"0.0")&" "&E5&" "&TEXT(F5,"0.0%")

However you cannot change part of the formula to red, you can change the
whole formula result to red based on any of the values by using
formatconditional formatting

No need for most of those text constants.

=B5&TEXT(C5," 0.0")&" "&E5&TEXT(F5," 0.0%")

or even:
=B5&TEXT(C5," 0.0 ")&E5&TEXT(F5," 0.0%")
