Eröffnung/opening
Explanation:
I think it is probably an abbreviation of "Eröffnung", so the opening of insolvency proceedings.

The question was in fact asked on Proz in a completely different context but with "Eröffnung" as the answer
https://www.proz.com/kudoz/german_to_english/engineering_gen...

and it is plausible in most of the contexts in which "EÖ" crops up on the internet, e.g.

Betriebsnummer vor EÖ des Verfahrens
Steuernummer nach EÖ des Verfahrens
www.gfi-sebnitz.de/download.php?datei=unterlagenblatt


Für alles, was nach EÖ entstanden ist, haftet der Schuldner wieder .

... and so on.
