BOTECO'S
ActiveSummary
The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability of BOTECO'S is 5.0% (elevated). The 2024 annual accounts show equity of €6,830 and a net result of €2,005. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 48% of 18930 sector peers (fiscal year 2024). The company has been active since 2015 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals.

Peer companies
Historical observationOf the 5,053 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 1.6% went bankrupt within 24 months and 96% are still going.
- Micro
- 10 to 20 years old
- solvency 10 to 30%
- a profit of 5% of the balance sheet or more
1.6%
went bankrupt
2.4%
stopped otherwise
96%
still going
A further 0.1% stopped, but we cannot tell whether within those 24 months.
For this company itself Checked computes a higher bankruptcy probability: 5.0% over twelve months. The score reads more about this company than the group's four characteristics; both figures are right about what they measure.
How reliable is this rule?
Tested on the year before, without using that year itself: the groups of July 2023 gave each of the 497,341 companies of July 2024 its group's bankruptcy share. Expected: 1.6%; actually bankrupt within 24 months: 1.7%.
| 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% | 1.0% |
| 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% |
The rule ranks well: a company that went bankrupt got a higher share than one that kept going in 74% 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 5,053 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.
