What this business does
Primary activity: Non-trading company
Sector: Professional, scientific & technical
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)
Distressed dormant / non-trading — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 79/100 (strong), bankability 85/100. Strong seller-intent signal (60/100, director aged 60). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

🏦

45/100

SIGNALS
  • secondaryFounder aged 58+: Senior director is approximately 60. Early succession window.
