IPS BELGIUM has been active since 1998 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €529k and a net result of €-471k. Equity is shrinking by ~22.2% per year and would, assuming unchanged policy, indicatively turn negative around fiscal year 2027. Its solvency ranks better than 11% of 454 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.2% (very low).
