Peer companies

Historical observation

Of the 31,349 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 0.4% went bankrupt within 24 months and 93% are still going.

Micro
20 years or older
solvency 30% or more
a profit of 5% of the balance sheet or more

0.4% went bankrupt

5.9% stopped otherwise

93% still going

A further 0.2% stopped, but we cannot tell whether within those 24 months.

For this company itself Checked computes a bankruptcy probability of 0.4% over twelve months; the group does not contradict it.

How reliable is this rule?

Tested on the year before, without using that year itself: the groups of July 2023 gave each of the 497,662 companies of July 2024 its group's bankruptcy share. Expected: 1.5%; actually bankrupt within 24 months: 1.6%.

The companies in ten equal groups, from lowest to highest expected share.
Group	Expected	Actual
1	0.2%	0.2%
2	0.3%	0.4%
3	0.5%	0.5%
4	0.6%	0.7%
5	0.8%	0.9%
6	1.2%	1.3%
7	1.5%	1.7%
8	1.7%	1.7%
9	2.7%	2.8%
10	5.3%	5.7%

The rule ranks well: a company that went bankrupt got a higher share than one that kept going in 75% of comparisons. The level follows the economy: in a year with more bankruptcies, the actual share is higher than the year before.

An observation about 31,349 comparable companies, not a prediction for this company. The sector does not count: the register keeps no sector for companies that stopped, so it would make the outcome look better than it was.

Not every act has been read: a resignation may be missing here

7 of this company's 8 Belgian State Gazette acts have not been read yet. Appointments and resignations recorded in them are missing above: a director who resigned there may therefore still show here as sitting. The acts are in the Timeline.
