The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability of SIPS is 2.4% (moderate). The annual accounts of SIPS for fiscal year 2024 show a net loss of 70% of total assets and of 62% of the equity at the start of that year. The 2024 annual accounts show equity of €94k and a net result of €-157k. Equity is shrinking by ~18.1% per year and would, assuming unchanged policy, indicatively turn negative around fiscal year 2026. Its solvency ranks better than 61% of 18940 sector peers (fiscal year 2024). The company has been active since 2000 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals.

Two consecutive loss-making years (2023 and 2024); equity is also lower. May indicate structural pressure on profitability.
