One-year enterprise survival in Ireland, 2021 and 2022 birth cohorts

Use the national one-year cohort comparison as historical context when stress-testing a new-business cash runway, break-even plan or hiring decision; do not treat it as a forecast for an individual business.

  • 2021 birth cohort: 78%
    One-year survival ratio from 37,597 enterprise births.
  • 2022 birth cohort: 79.8%
    One-year survival ratio from 47,540 enterprise births.
Methodology and limitations

Ireland; CSO business economy excluding NACE Rev. 2 sector O and activities of membership organisations (S94); all persons-engaged size classes; enterprise birth cohorts 2021 and 2022 followed for one year to reference years 2022 and 2023.

Margin101 selects the four official BRA36 cells needed for a like-for-like one-year comparison: enterprise births in each cohort year and enterprises from that cohort surviving to the following reference year, all at employment-size code -03 and activity code BTSXO_S94. The survival rate is survivors divided by births and is rounded to six decimal places. Earlier cohorts, other horizons, sector detail and null source cells are excluded rather than combined, interpolated or forecast.

  • The series is historical national context and does not estimate the probability that a particular business will survive.
  • CSO states that births and related survivals before 2021 include non-market producers; those cohorts are excluded to preserve methodological comparability.
  • The business-economy aggregate excludes NACE Rev. 2 sector O and activities of membership organisations (S94).
  • The all-size aggregate can conceal material differences by activity and employment size.
  • A birth not counted among one-year survivors must not be interpreted as a confirmed business closure without separate enterprise-death evidence.
  • BRA36 is an administrative-statistics release with publication lag, revisions and disclosure control; no suppressed or unavailable value is reconstructed.
  • The module supports scenario planning only and is not accounting, tax, legal, financing or business advice.
