Summary

The annual accounts of ECT for fiscal year 2025 show a net loss of 74% of the equity at the start of that year. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €5,701 and a net result of -€16,415. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 24% of 2067 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The company has been active since 1995 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.1% (very low).

Historical observation

Of the 542 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 4.4% went bankrupt within 24 months and 86% are still going.

  • Micro
  • 20 years or older
  • solvency under 10%
  • a loss of 10% of the balance sheet or more
4.4% went bankrupt
8.7% stopped otherwise
86% still going

A further 1.3% stopped, but we cannot tell whether within those 24 months.

For this company itself Checked computes a lower bankruptcy probability: 0.1% over twelve months. The score reads more about this company than the group's four characteristics; both figures are right about what they measure.

How reliable is this rule?

Tested on the year before, without using that year itself: the groups of July 2023 gave each of the 497,058 companies of July 2024 its group's bankruptcy share. Expected: 1.5%; actually bankrupt within 24 months: 1.6%.

The companies in ten equal groups, from lowest to highest expected share.
Group Expected Actual
1 0.2% 0.2%
2 0.3% 0.4%
3 0.5% 0.5%
4 0.6% 0.7%
5 0.8% 0.9%
6 1.2% 1.3%
7 1.5% 1.6%
8 1.7% 1.7%
9 2.7% 2.8%
10 5.3% 5.7%

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 542 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.
