Summary

Conclusion

the dossier summarised in one paragraph

The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability of FOCUS ADVERTISING is 0.3% (very low). The company has been active since 1983 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. No processed annual-account figures are available; this conclusion rests on registry and State Gazette data only.

Based on State Gazette and CBE data.

Filing behaviour

From the deposit records, complete market-wide
Deadline passed, not yet counted as missing
The deadline for the year that closed on 31-12-2025 passed on 31-07-2026, 12 days ago. Our copy of the deposit register trails the National Bank (measured: median 14 days, p99 45 days), so we only call this filing missing from 45 days past the deadline.
Filed after the deadline
The financial year that closed on 31-12-2024 was due by 31-07-2025 and was filed on 28-08-2025, 28 days later. For context: 47% of the Belgian market files late and the whole 1-to-90-day band measures 2.0% abnormal legal state against a 1.66% average. We show this as a fact and do not score it.
How we compute the deadline
The year end is derived from 10 filed financial years, each closing on 31-12. The statutory deadline is seven months after the close of the financial year (art. 3:10 par. 1 CAC, art. 3:47 par. 7 for ASBL and foundations). Applied to the financial year that closed on 31-12-2024, that is 31-07-2025.

No legal incidents
No bankruptcy, reorganisation or interim measure in the Belgisch Staatsblad, and the KBO register records a normal legal situation.

Administrative Flags

No strikeouts found in the KBO publications we processed. That series starts in 2021 and has gaps, so this is not a confirmation that there is nothing.

Each band states what its claims rest on. A board seat is influence over the board, not ownership. Court mandates (receiver, interim administrator) and liquidation mandates do not link companies and are therefore absent here; they belong under Directors & mandates.
