Peer companies

Historical observation

Of the 1,860 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 0.1% went bankrupt within 24 months and 98% are still going.

  • Medium-sized
  • 20 years or older
  • solvency 30% or more
  • a profit under 5% of the balance sheet
0.1% went bankrupt
2.0% stopped otherwise
98% still going

For this company itself Checked computes a bankruptcy probability of 0.5% 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 1,860 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.

E-invoicing
Not found in the Peppol register

No Peppol card under this enterprise or VAT number. That proves nothing: publishing a card is voluntary.

What can you do?

Try sending from your invoicing software; if that fails, ask the customer whether they already receive via Peppol.

If the customer is not ready yet, you may send the invoice another way, for example as a PDF; if electronically, with their agreement on a secure alternative. That invoice is valid; the customer risks a penalty. FPS Finance
