Summary

CARAT has been active since 2000 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €4k and a net result of €-2k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 19% of 3480 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.3% (very low).

raises risk · Persistent losses
Two consecutive loss-making years (2024 and 2025); equity is also lower. May indicate structural pressure on profitability.

neutral · A punctual record breaks
This company filed 9 consecutive financial years on time. The year that closed on 30-09-2025 was due by 30-04-2026 and was filed on 15-05-2026, 15 days late. Weigh it accordingly: a break into the 1-to-90-day band measures 1.41% abnormal legal state, below the 1.66% market average. It is a change in behaviour, not evidence of elevated risk.
