Checked score
Checked score
The higher the Checked score (0 to 100), the smaller the chance that the company goes bankrupt within twelve months. That chance sets the band, from Critical to Excellent, and within the band how the company does against its sector peers counts too. With a low score, agree a shorter payment term, an advance or security.

Bankruptcy probability within 12 months
Bankruptcy probability
It is the chance that the company goes bankrupt within twelve months, estimated from the registers, the annual accounts and the Belgian Official Gazette. At 0.2%, about 2 in 1,000 comparable companies go bankrupt. The higher it is, the shorter the payment term to agree.

Financial strength
Financial strength
Financial strength measures the balance sheet and the results with three figures out of 100 from the latest annual accounts: solvency, liquidity and profitability. It does not directly set the Checked score's band. How the company does against its sector peers on these and on growth does count for its place within the band.

Test of the method
The method was tested on the 497,448 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.

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 31,368 companies, not a prediction for Bowlines. 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.
