  • Figures for FY 2024 (filed 05-06-2025) raises the probability
  • Liquidity: current ratio 1.15, cash €1.0m raises the probability
  • Equity €12.9m (18.2% of total assets) raises the probability
  • Sector Construction of residential and non-residential buildings (NACE 41) raises the probability

Liquidity tight (current ratio 1.15 against 1.08 in 2023; short-term debt: 79.2% and cash: 1.4% of total assets), and 81.8% of the assets are financed with debt.
How it is calculated

The band comes from the bankruptcy probability on a scale of 0 to 100: every 10 points more double the odds of getting through the year without bankruptcy.

75-100 Excellent under 0.55%
60-74 Healthy 0.55% to 1.5%
45-59 Fair 1.5% to 4.2%
25-44 Weak 4.2% to 15.0%
0-24 Critical over 15.0%

Place inside the band: half the bankruptcy probability, half how the company does against its sector peers (NACE 41). Better than this share of them on solvency 29%, liquidity 4%, profitability 35%, growth against the median 60%. That is performance, not lower risk; the band itself always comes from the probability.

Bankruptcy probability: model pd-v3.202610021621, computed on 03-10-2026. The model learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the gazette.

Ceilings: negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special KBO legal situation and a missing filing 59 (two missing 44), an ongoing judicial reorganisation or an ending 24. Financial strength does not count in the score.
