Summary

Caroline Costermans has been active since 2020 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €15k and a net result of €94k. Equity is shrinking by ~24.3% per year and would, assuming unchanged policy, indicatively turn negative around fiscal year 2026. Its solvency ranks better than 8% of 12738 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.3% (very low).
