WOUTERS
ActiveSummary
WOUTERS has been active since 1979 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show negative equity (€-825k) and a net result of €-763k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 5% of 1030 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.9% (low).
