Filing behaviour

From the deposit records, complete market-wide
Annual accounts not filed
The financial year that closed on 31-12-2024 was due at the National Bank by 31-07-2025. Nothing is on record today, 375 days later. 2 financial years are missing in total. Measured on financial year 2023: 41.75% of the companies that did not file are in an abnormal legal state today, against 1.66% of those that did.
Filed more than 90 days late
The financial year that closed on 31-12-2023 was due by 31-07-2024 and was filed on 06-11-2024, 98 days past the deadline. Measured on financial year 2023: companies more than 90 days late are in an abnormal legal state today in 5.61% of cases, against 1.66% across all filers.
How we compute the deadline
The year end is derived from 10 filed financial years, each closing on 31-12. The statutory deadline is seven months after the close of the financial year (art. 3:10 par. 1 CAC, art. 3:47 par. 7 for ASBL and foundations). Applied to the financial year that closed on 31-12-2023, that is 31-07-2024.

Solid line = filed figures · dashed = extended trend · area = indicative range.
How do we compute this?

The trend is a robust median of all pairwise slopes between fiscal years (Theil-Sen), so a single odd year cannot hijack the line. For strictly positive series we also fit a log variant (compound annual growth) and keep whichever describes the figures best.

The area around the projection is 1.8 × the median absolute deviation from the trend, widening each year ahead (×1 / ×1.6 / ×2.2), with a minimum of 8% of the last value. It is an indicative range, not a statistical confidence interval.

A series whose deviations exceed 35% of its level is too volatile: we then deliberately show no projection. Every projection assumes unchanged policy and is blind to non-public information (order book, contracts, funding rounds).
