What this business does

Primary activity: Other social work activities without accommodation n.e.c.

Sector: Human health & social work

Investor take

Pass (distressed without resilience)

Distressed unclear — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 60/100 (worth a look), bankability 70/100. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Resolve: Company dissolved. Company has been dissolved — it no longer legally exists. Any diligence here is historical only. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (73/100).

Data confidence

Overall: medium (61/100)

+Founder age: Director aged approximately 73 — succession pressure is live.

Succession & seller-readiness

73/100

SIGNALS

primaryFounder aged 70+: Senior director is approximately 73 years old. Natural succession window is now.
secondary12+ year tenure: Director in role 12 years.
supportingClean filings + long tenure: Disciplined long-tenure operator — classic lifestyle-business pattern that often sells quietly.
