Debt to equity is not shown because equity is negative. Debt divided by negative equity means nothing.

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.
