DIFFERENCE
ActiveSummary
DIFFERENCE has been active since 1986 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €341,711 and a net result of €62,451. Equity remains stable across the filed fiscal years (±2.2% per year). Its solvency ranks better than 91% of 9629 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is < 0.1% (very low).

Checked score
Fewer than 1 in 1,000 comparable companies go bankrupt within 12 months (an estimate).
- Liquidity: current ratio 9.22, cash €213,965 lowers the probability
- Equity €341,711 (89.1% of total assets) lowers the probability
- Founded in 1986 lowers the probability for this profile
- Figures for FY 2025 (filed 27-08-2026) lowers the probability
How it is calculated
The band comes from the bankruptcy probability on a scale of 0 to 100: every 10 points more double the odds of getting through the year without bankruptcy.
| 75-100 | Excellent | under 0.55% |
| 60-74 | Healthy | 0.55% to 1.5% |
| 45-59 | Fair | 1.5% to 4.2% |
| 25-44 | Weak | 4.2% to 15.0% |
| 0-24 | Critical | over 15.0% |
Place inside the band: half the bankruptcy probability, half how the company does against its sector peers (NACE 46, micro). Better than this share of them on solvency 90%, liquidity 95%, profitability 69%, growth against the median 63%. That is performance, not lower risk; the band itself always comes from the probability.
Bankruptcy probability: model pd-v3.202610021621, computed on 05-10-2026. The model learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the gazette.
Ceilings: negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special KBO legal situation and a missing filing 59 (two missing 44), an ongoing judicial reorganisation or an ending 24. Financial strength does not count in the score.

Peer companies
Historical observationOf the 31,372 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 0.5% went bankrupt within 24 months and 93% are still going.
- Micro
- 20 years or older
- solvency 30% or more
- a profit of 5% of the balance sheet or more
A further 0.1% stopped, but we cannot tell whether within those 24 months.
For this company itself Checked computes a bankruptcy probability of < 0.1% over twelve months; the group does not contradict it.
How reliable is this rule?
Tested on the year before, without using that year itself: the groups of July 2023 gave each of the 497,471 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 31,372 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.
