Summary

LA BIOSPHERE has been active since 2003 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2024 annual accounts show negative equity (€-88k) and a net result of €-123k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 10% of 6537 sector peers (fiscal year 2024). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 1.1% (low).
