Score 2025
Checked score
A figure from 0 to 100 for financial health from the latest annual accounts: the higher, the healthier. Without a figure, the card says why. A low score is a reason to look closely at payment terms and security.
Four sides of financial health side by side. You see at a glance where the company is strong and where it is vulnerable.

Historical observation
Peer companies
What happened to companies that once looked just like this one does now. It describes the group, not this company: the figures are counted, not predicted.
Of the 928 companies that looked in July 2024 the way this one looks now, 1.1% went bankrupt within 24 months and 90% are still going.
Small
20 years or older
solvency 30% or more
a loss of 10% of the balance sheet or more
1.1%went bankrupt
8.8%stopped otherwise
90%still going
A further 0.1% stopped, but we cannot tell whether within those 24 months.
For this company itself Checked computes a bankruptcy probability of 0.4% over twelve months; the group does not contradict it.
How reliable is this rule?
Tested on the year before, without using that year itself: the groups of July 2023 gave each of the 497,341 companies of July 2024 its group's bankruptcy share. Expected: 1.6%; actually bankrupt within 24 months: 1.7%.
The companies in ten equal groups, from lowest to highest expected share.

The rule ranks well: a company that went bankrupt got a higher share than one that kept going in 74% of comparisons. The level follows the economy: in a year with more bankruptcies, the actual share is higher than the year before.
An observation about 928 comparable companies, not a prediction for this company. The sector does not count: the register keeps no sector for companies that stopped, so it would make the outcome look better than it was.
