ABBEY HEALTHCARE (CROMWELL) LTD.
Opportunity 69/100 (strong), bankability 42/100. Strong seller-intent signal (73/100, director aged 65). Asset purchase likely safer than share purchase given structural signals.

Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (50/100).

- · Legal-friction score 45/100 (high).
