Owner dependency

40/100
Moderate — manageable with handover

Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.

FACTORS
  • -5 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100
Weak signal

Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.

Red flags

1 med ·
2 director resignations in last 12 months
medium

Multiple recent departures can indicate governance disagreement, succession event, or preparation for sale/stress.

Evidence: WINTER, Paul Richard resigned 2025-08-20; WINTER, Paul Richard resigned 2025-08-20
