Summary

THE GROWTH LAB has been active since 2015 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2024 annual accounts show equity of €58k and a net result of €16k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 45% of 20780 sector peers (fiscal year 2024). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.4% (very low).
