What this business does
Primary activity: SIC 99999
Sector: Extraterritorial bodies
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)
Distressed low-transparency controlled group — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 41/100 (watch), bankability 32/100. Strong seller-intent signal (60/100, director aged 60). Asset purchase likely safer than share purchase given structural signals. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: asset disposal / carve-out (70/100). Current lenders should be on immediate intervention.

🏦

Refinance opportunity

19 live charges · 16 lenders · oldest 34.7y

25/100
too messy

Structure is too messy for a clean refinance right now — clean up first or expect bespoke terms.

  • · Oldest live charge is 34.7 years old — likely at or near maturity.
  • · 16 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
  • · Legal-friction score 65/100 (specialist).

Data confidence

Overall: low (53/100)

  • +Senior director age: Director aged approximately 60 — approaching natural succession window.

Succession & seller-readiness

64/100
Strong succession signal

Multiple signals suggest succession is on the horizon. Candidate for proactive outreach.

SIGNALS
  • secondaryFounder aged 58+: Senior director is approximately 60. Early succession window.
  • secondaryTwo-director governance: Small-team governance. Succession depth is thin but not absent.
  • secondary12+ year tenure: Director in role 13 years.
  • secondaryStable-but-static management: Company is 42 years old and no new directors in the last 3 years — succession not yet being planned internally.
