What this business does

Primary activity: Ready-made interactive leisure and entertainment software development

Sector: Information & communication

Investor take

Pursue

Leverage-led grower. Reasonable fundamentals — worth a memo before deciding.

Opportunity 68/100 (strong), bankability 57/100. Biggest value-creation lever: Consolidate lender relationships. 9 distinct lenders creates friction — refinance into single-lender structure for cleaner diligence. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (63/100).

🏦

Refinance opportunity

13 live charges · 9 lenders · oldest 10.8y

45/100

clean up first

Refinance viable after a tidy-up — address the highlighted items first.

· Oldest live charge is 10.8 years old — likely at or near maturity.
· 9 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
· Legal-friction score 40/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.
· Profitable and stable/growing — lender coverage supportable.
