Losses
Every financial year from 2022 to 2025 closed with a loss. 2023 was the heaviest.
Every financial year from 2022 to 2025 closed with a loss. 2023 was the heaviest.
The 2020 accounts came 18 days late. The other five were filed on time.
Lower net result than 84% of companies in other professional activities. Sector median €9,329 · 4,352 companies.
The dashed line is the sector median: 0.2% across 5,430 companies (NACE 74, micro).
About 7 in 1,000 comparable companies go bankrupt within 12 months (an estimate).
The band follows from the bankruptcy probability. 10 more points roughly halve it.
| 75-100 | Excellent | under 0.55% |
| 60-74 | Healthy | 0.55% to 1.5% |
| 45-59 | Fair | 1.5% to 4.2% |
| 25-44 | Weak | 4.2% to 15.0% |
| 0-24 | Critical | over 15.0% |
Where the company stands within its band depends half on the bankruptcy probability and half on how it does against its sector peers (NACE 74, micro). It does better than 36% of them on solvency, 21% on liquidity, 7% on profitability and 14% on growth.
The bankruptcy probability was computed on 08-11-2026 by the bankruptcy model of 2 October 2026, which learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the Belgian Official Gazette.
The probability rests on the annual accounts with balance sheet date 31-12-2025.
Of the companies with a bankruptcy probability in the low class on 30-06-2025, 0.8% went bankrupt within twelve months.
Some facts cap the score, however low the probability. With negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special status in the KBO, one missing filing or accounts filed more than 90 days late, the score is Fair at most (59). With two missing filings, it is Weak at most (44). During a judicial reorganisation or at the company's end (bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation), it is Critical at most (24).
In July 2024, 3,591 companies had the same profile as BE VISUALS has now. Each dot stands for 9 companies, two years later.
Another 0.3% stopped without a precise date, possibly only after those two years.
That fits the bankruptcy probability of BE VISUALS itself: 0.7% within 12 months.
The method was tested on the 497,447 companies of July 2024. Each company was given the bankruptcy share of the same profile a year earlier, in July 2023. The expectation was that 1.6% would go bankrupt within 24 months. In fact 1.7% went bankrupt.
| Group | Expected | Actual |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 0.2% | 0.2% |
| 2 | 0.3% | 0.5% |
| 3 | 0.5% | 0.6% |
| 4 | 0.7% | 0.8% |
| 5 | 0.9% | 0.9% |
| 6 | 1.3% | 1.5% |
| 7 | 1.6% | 1.8% |
| 8 | 1.8% | 1.8% |
| 9 | 3.0% | 3.1% |
| 10 | 5.6% | 6.2% |
A company that went bankrupt had a higher expected share than one that kept going in 74.5% of comparisons. The level depends on the economy. In a year with more bankruptcies than the year before, the actual share is higher than the expected one.
This is an observation about 3,591 companies, not a prediction for BE VISUALS. The sector does not count, because the KBO no longer lists a sector for a company that has stopped. By sector, mostly the survivors would count, which would paint too rosy a picture.
Liquidity is insufficient, with a current ratio of 0.94 (1.29 in 2024), below 1. Short-term debt is 64.4% and cash 16.2% of total assets. 69.1% of the assets are financed with debt and provisions.

The scores and ratios are Checked's own calculations, not a credit decision.
The company filed its last 6 accounts on average 29 days before the deadline. In the sector (NACE 74), the median for financial year 2024 was 3 days before the deadline, and 38% of those companies filed late.

A Belgian filing has no cash-flow statement. Cash flow is therefore an approximation, derived from the income statement. Investment is the acquisitions in the notes and, without them, the balance-sheet move.
