Summary

AXUS has been active since 1946 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €681.98M and a net result of €72.52M. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 24% of 435 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.5% (very low).
