Summary

For BINET, at least two filing cycles of the annual accounts are missing. The 2023 annual accounts show equity of €679k and a net result of €627k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 81% of 6143 sector peers (fiscal year 2023). The company has been active since 1995 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.5% (very low).
