Signals

Insufficient current data: the most recent filed accounts (financial year 2018) are too old to derive current signals.

Filing behaviour

From the deposit records, complete market-wide
Filing behaviour not assessed
The register records an open bankruptcy. From that point the trustee files and the ordinary seven-month rhythm no longer governs. The register carries no start date, so we cannot tell which filings fall before it: we show the facts and do not assess the behaviour.
Filed after the deadline
The financial year that closed on 31-12-2018 was due by 31-07-2019 and was filed on 10-10-2019, 71 days later. For context: 47% of the Belgian market files late and the whole 1-to-90-day band measures 2.0% abnormal legal state against a 1.66% average. We show this as a fact and do not score it.
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 31-12-2018, that is 31-07-2019.

Source: the National Bank's deposit records. Those records are complete, including for years whose figures we have not read yet. Filing late covers nearly half the market and is therefore not scored; only not filing, being more than 90 days late and breaking a punctual record carry weight.

No strikeouts found in the KBO publications we processed. That series starts in 2021 and has gaps, so this is not a confirmation that there is nothing.

Structure & network

Ownership & control

No ownership or control structure found in the sources.

For this we read shareholding and parent/subsidiary relations from the acts in the Belgian State Gazette, plus the board seats that legal entities hold in one another. Nothing of the sort is published for this company, which is common: most Belgian companies do not publish a shareholding structure.

2 court or liquidation mandates are on record for this company. Such a mandate is a fact about the company itself, not about a tie to another one: two bankruptcies handled by the same receiver are two separate cases. They are listed under Directors & mandates.
