Owner dependency

55/100

+Founder age: Director aged approximately 76 — succession pressure is live.

Succession & seller-readiness

73/100

Strong succession signal

SIGNALS

primaryFounder aged 70+: Senior director is approximately 76 years old. Natural succession window is now.
secondary12+ year tenure: Director in role 13 years.
supportingClean filings + long tenure: Disciplined long-tenure operator — classic lifestyle-business pattern that often sells quietly.
