MPD (UK) LIMITED
- · Lifecycle stage drifting downward
- · Currently "declining"
Opportunity 71/100 (strong), bankability 70/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure.

Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (85/100).

Refinance viable after a tidy-up — address the highlighted items first.
- · Oldest live charge is 35.9 years old — likely at or near maturity.
- · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.

- primarySole active director: Only one director in control. No visible successor — buyers solve the succession problem.
- secondaryStable-but-static management: Company is 37 years old and no new directors in the last 3 years — succession not yet being planned internally.
