What this business does
Primary activity: SIC 6110
Sector: Information & communication
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)
Distressed admin-neglect survivor — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 63/100 (worth a look), bankability 45/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (48/100). Current lenders should be on monthly review.

Data confidence

Overall: low (45/100)

Sparse data coverage. Treat AI-generated outputs as preliminary. Manual diligence essential.

Owner dependency

65/100
High — earn-out structure required

Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.

  • -4 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
  • +Long-tenure founder: Senior director has been in place 32 years — deep operational knowledge concentrated in one person.
  • +Founder age: Director aged approximately 89 — succession pressure is live.

Succession & seller-readiness

85/100
Likely off-market candidate

SIGNALS
  • primaryFounder aged 70+: Senior director is approximately 89 years old. Natural succession window is now.
  • primary20+ year tenure: Director in role 32 years. Very long tenure is a classic succession signal.
  • secondaryStable-but-static management: Company is 61 years old and no new directors in the last 3 years — succession not yet being planned internally.
