Design et Development Technical Documentation has been active since 1996 and the Belgian Official Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €18,581 and a net result of -€2,459. Equity has been stable since 2018 (±2.4% per year). Its solvency ranks better than 92% of 2,559 sector peers (NACE 71, financial year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.1% (very low).

Checked score
Score 2025
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.
93/ 100
Excellent
Probability in this band: under 0.55%
Financially stronger than 44% of micro companies in architecture and engineering (NACE 71)
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.

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.

Where the company stands within its band depends half on the bankruptcy probability and half on how it does against its sector peers (NACE 71, micro). It does better than 87% of them on solvency, 54% on liquidity, 10% on profitability and 26% on growth.
The bankruptcy probability was computed on 03-11-2026 by the bankruptcy model of 2 October 2026, which learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the Belgian Official Gazette.
Some facts cap the score, however low the probability. With negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special status in the KBO, one missing filing or accounts filed more than 90 days late, the score is Fair at most (59). With two missing filings, it is Weak at most (44). During a judicial reorganisation or at the company's end (bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation), it is Critical at most (24).

tick = median of all Belgian filingsring = median in the sector
The company filed its last 7 accounts on average 37 days before the deadline. In the sector (NACE 71), the median for financial year 2024 was 8 days before the deadline, and 34% of those companies filed late.
Searched, nothing found (2)
neutral · Next filing not due yet
The next financial year closes on 31-12-2026 and is due by 31-07-2027. Nothing is late today. The company usually files around 28 June (5 of the last 5 accounts filed within 30 days either side of that date).
The EBIT margin is the share of each euro of revenue left from ordinary operations. The higher it is, the more room the company has to absorb a setback.
The net result is what is left after all costs and taxes. One loss year is not an alarm on its own. After several loss years in a row, it pays to find out why.
Working capital is what is left when the company pays its short-term debts with its short-term assets. Positive means it can pay its bills in the short term.

The figures are counted, not predicted. They describe the group, not Design et Development Technical Documentation.
In July 2024, 5,831 companies had the same profile as Design et Development Technical Documentation has now. Two years later, 84.6% were still going and 1.7% had gone bankrupt.

13.4%stopped otherwise
1.7%went bankrupt
Another 0.3% stopped without a precise date, possibly only after those two years.
The bankruptcy probability of Design et Development Technical Documentation itself is lower: 0.1% within 12 months. It rests on far more data about Design et Development Technical Documentation 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.

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 5,831 companies, not a prediction for Design et Development Technical Documentation. 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.
