Historical observation

In July 2024, 14,766 companies had the same profile as GESTA-TEC has now. Two years later, 96.2% were still going and 0.2% had gone bankrupt.

  • Small
  • 20 years or older
  • solvency 30% or more
  • a profit under 5% of the balance sheet
96.2% was still going
3.5% stopped otherwise
0.2% went bankrupt

Another 0.1% stopped without a precise date, possibly only after those two years.

That fits the bankruptcy probability of GESTA-TEC itself: 0.2% 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

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.
