Help searching for corporate record/annual filing

I would like some help searching for the corporate record/annual filing for a company name ErgoType BV. Its office is in the Netherlands but I'm unsure if they file their annual report there.
A bit of background: By chance, I saw an unconventional keyboard on amazon which seems (to me) to be hot garbage -

https://www.amazon.com/SafeType-Keyboard-Black-Color-V902/dp/B0049PFYWQ

I did a little digging and found the following at http://info.safetype.com/aboutus.htm
In May 2013 SafeType Inc. sold all assets to ErgoType BV. From it's office in the Netherlands, ErgoType BV will continue to manufacture the SafetypeTM keyboard and handle world wide distribution.

I'm very curious on the financial health of this company but I'm now lost because:

I don't know where and if this company file their corporate annual reports
I'm not sure if aforementioned annual reports are public record.

I'm hoping someone more in the know could point me in the right direction. Thank you very much in advance, --172.103.164.157 (talk) 07:12, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A Dutch Besloten vennootschap is obliged to file its annual financial report (jaarrekening) with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. You can order the filings by ErgoType B.V. from this page (in Dutch only), but to do that you first need to obtain an access code (toegangscode) from this page; as part of the process you need to establish a method of payment. If you are offered a choice between XBRL and pdf, choose the latter unless you have an app for viewing XBRL documents.

Alternatively, you could write to the company and request their latest jaarrekening. Who knows, perhaps they will be happy to oblige. --Lambiam 12:08, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you Lambiam, appreciate it! --172.103.164.157 (talk) 16:42, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Final update for those also curious - I brought the annual reports and posting them here as they are public record: https://mega.nz/file/ntYnWKbR#UbkrSalWm3H2Lc2XlQDxY7tWK-Zr-jhsf2DW_kQ93Tc (2018, 2017, 2015, 40KB, PDF) --172.103.164.157 (talk) 18:06, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Is Tokyo/Narita the furthest city/int'l airport pair where the city is the airport's most important city and the airport is the city's most important intl airport?

Most miles between city center and gate(s) or runway(s). Sagittarian Milky Way (talk) 16:54, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

According to our article, Haneda Airport handles more traffic than Narita International Airport. -- Calidum 17:25, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

But Narita handles more international passenger traffic, so you can decide for yourself which you think is more important. If you go with Narita, then it certainly wins the OP's question. There are a bunch of other airports further away from their respective cities here, but none of them are the respective city's main airport. --Viennese Waltz 17:34, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes, those airports in Stockholm and Oslo are so far away from the cities! IIRC, the trek from the airport to Oslo was a 45 minute coach journey, maybe more. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 19:14, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Denver International Airport is also a long way from the Denver city limits. If you catch a morning or afternoon traffic jamb you will be in a car, cab or bus for more than an hour before you get downtown. MarnetteD|Talk 19:24, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for introducing me to "traffic jamb". I assumed it was you just making the spelling up as you went along, but I now see it's a rather common error. How naughty of me never to have noticed this before. -- Jack of Oz ^{[pleasantries]} 21:54, 2 September 2020 (UTC) [reply]

It's a medical condition, like tennis elbow. --Lambiam 22:58, 2 September 2020 (UTC)}[reply]

Gadzooks that's the way I remember it being spelled but the dust in my memory banks is causing all sorts of problems these days :-) I do prefer strawberry jam anyway. MarnetteD|Talk 23:08, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
