This company filed 9 consecutive financial years on time. The year that closed on 31-12-2025 was due by 31-07-2026 and was filed on 10-09-2026, 41 days late. Weigh it accordingly: a break into the 1-to-90-day band measures 1.41% abnormal legal state, below the 1.66% market average. It is a change in behaviour, not evidence of elevated risk.

This board is reconstructed from a single act (26349523). A Gazette act generally publishes only CHANGES, not a full roll call, so directors unchanged since then may be missing here. The KBO register holds the complete list of function holders.
