What this business does

Primary activity: SIC 38210

Sector: Water supply & waste

Investor take

Pursue

Active trading company with a 65-year-old founder — textbook succession opportunity.

Opportunity 74/100 (strong), bankability 77/100. Strong seller-intent signal (73/100, director aged 65). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Consolidate lender relationships. 6 distinct lenders creates friction — refinance into single-lender structure for cleaner diligence. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

🏦

Refinance opportunity

6 live charges · 6 lenders · oldest 34.0y

35/100

too messy

Refinance path is blocked by complexity. Rethink structure or expect bespoke, expensive terms.

· Oldest live charge is 34.0 years old — likely at or near maturity.
· 6 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
· Legal-friction score 38/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.

Data confidence

Overall: medium (61/100)

Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.
