Historical observation

In July 2024, 17,041 companies had the same profile as FORPUS has now. Two years later, 94.3% were still going and 0.5% had gone bankrupt.

  • Micro
  • 20 years or older
  • solvency 30% or more
  • a profit under 5% of the balance sheet
94.3% was still going
4.9% stopped otherwise
0.5% went bankrupt

Another 0.2% stopped without a precise date, possibly only after those two years.

That fits the bankruptcy probability of FORPUS itself: < 0.1% within 12 months.

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.

The companies in ten equal groups, from the lowest to the highest expected share
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% 0.9%
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%

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 17,041 companies, not a prediction for FORPUS. 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.
