I like it. But to take it even further and to remove any contrast issues affecting readability, I would only change the color and bold the red numbers. Rest should all be regular text. That will truly call out the ones in the red zone which are the ones that need attention. The colored shaped markers will still accurately reveal all other values in and their associated status range. What say?
