Historical observation
In July 2024, 514 companies had the same profile as BERNARD DEGROOTE CONSTRUCT has now. Two years later, 96.9% were still going and 1.8% had gone bankrupt.
- Micro
- under 2 years old
- solvency under 10%
- a profit under 5% of the balance sheet
Another 0.2% stopped without a precise date, possibly only after those two years.
The bankruptcy probability of BERNARD DEGROOTE CONSTRUCT itself is lower: 0.3% within 12 months. It rests on far more data about BERNARD DEGROOTE CONSTRUCT than the profile alone.
Test of the method
The method was tested on the 497,446 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 514 companies, not a prediction for BERNARD DEGROOTE CONSTRUCT. 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.
