  • Liquidity: current ratio 1.64, cash €549 raises the probability
  • Latest accounts 29 days late; 2 of the last 3 late raises the probability
  • Founded in 1972 lowers the probability for this profile
  • Size: total assets €459,225 lowers the probability for this profile
Credit up to €2,500 at 30 days acceptable
Liquidity ample (current ratio 1.64 against 0.96 in 2024; short-term debt: 7% and cash: 0.1% of total assets), but 90.7% of the assets are financed with debt.
How it is calculated

The band comes from the bankruptcy probability on a scale of 0 to 100: every 10 points more double the odds of getting through the year without bankruptcy.

75-100 Excellent under 0.55%
60-74 Healthy 0.55% to 1.5%
45-59 Fair 1.5% to 4.2%
25-44 Weak 4.2% to 15.0%
0-24 Critical over 15.0%

Place inside the band: half the bankruptcy probability, half how the company does against its sector peers (NACE 47, micro). Better than this share of them on solvency 26%, liquidity 54%, profitability 34%, growth against the median 73%. That is performance, not lower risk; the band itself always comes from the probability.

Bankruptcy probability: model pd-v3.202610021621, computed on 04-10-2026. The model learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the gazette.

Ceilings: negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special KBO legal situation and a missing filing 59 (two missing 44), an ongoing judicial reorganisation or an ending 24. Financial strength does not count in the score.
