Summary

Balou has a registered holding activity and consists mainly of financial fixed assets; the bankruptcy model is trained on trading and manufacturing companies and does not apply here. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €233,478 and a net result of €28,202. Equity is growing by ~20.8% per year across the filed fiscal years. Its solvency ranks better than 25% of 31896 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The company has been active since 2020 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals.

Checked score

Outside the general model
Holding: general score not applicable
The company has a registered holding activity and financial fixed assets account for more than half of its assets. The general operating-company model is unsuitable for this profile, so we show no financial axes either. Filed figures remain available.
