Credit of up to €150,000 on 30-day terms is acceptable
Liquidity ample (current ratio 22.65, compared with 32.95 in 2024, above the usual 1.5; short-term debt: 3.5% and cash: 57.6% of total assets), and 12.8% of the assets are financed with debt and provisions.
How it is calculated

The band follows from the bankruptcy probability, on a scale where 10 more points roughly halve it:

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%

Where the company stands within its band depends half on the bankruptcy probability and half on how it does against its sector peers (NACE 85, micro): better than 88% on solvency, 97% on liquidity, 55% on profitability and 70% on growth.

The bankruptcy probability was computed on 29-10-2026 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. Negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special status in the KBO, one missing filing or accounts filed more than 90 days late hold it at Fair at most (59); two missing filings, at Weak (44). An ongoing judicial reorganisation or the company's end (bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation) holds it at Critical at most (24).

This company filed 4 consecutive financial years on time. The year that closed on 31-12-2025 was due by 31-07-2026 and was filed on 19-08-2026, 19 days late. Weigh it accordingly: of the companies that move to filing 1 to 90 days late, 1.41% are now bankrupt, dissolved or in another special legal status, below the 1.66% of all filers. It is a change in behaviour, not evidence of elevated risk.
