Summary

THE BELGIAN CHOCOLATE EXPERIENCE has been active since 2010 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show equity of €2.4m and a net result of €2.1m. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 70% of 4559 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is < 0.1% (very low).

How it is calculated

The band comes from the bankruptcy probability on a scale of 0 to 100: every 10 points more double the odds of getting through the year without bankruptcy.

75-100 Excellent under 0.55%
60-74 Healthy 0.55% to 1.5%
45-59 Fair 1.5% to 4.2%
25-44 Weak 4.2% to 15.0%
0-24 Critical over 15.0%

Place inside the band: half the bankruptcy probability, half how the company does against its sector peers (NACE 56, small). Better than this share of them on solvency 77%, liquidity 99%, profitability 96%, growth against the median 77%. That is performance, not lower risk; the band itself always comes from the probability.

Bankruptcy probability: model pd-v3.202610021621, computed on 05-10-2026. The model learns from Belgian bankruptcies and reads the registers, the annual accounts and the gazette.

Ceilings: negative or zero equity, a heavy loss, a special KBO legal situation and a missing filing 59 (two missing 44), an ongoing judicial reorganisation or an ending 24. Financial strength does not count in the score.
