⚰️Wound downliquidation

10780344 · ltd · incorporated 2017-05-19

Investment thesis

Company liquidation — not a live target.

Why interesting: Historical record only; useful for precedent research.

Why risky: Not transactable.

Opportunity decay

approaching window · 12-months

Approaching a transaction window — refinance or sale event plausible in the next 12 months.

· Oldest live charge 6.8y old — refinance window within 12 months

What this business does

Primary activity: Other business support service activities n.e.c.

Sector: Administrative & support services

Investor take

Pass (distressed without resilience)

Distressed unclear — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 49/100 (watch), bankability 60/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Asset purchase likely safer than share purchase given structural signals. Biggest value-creation lever: Resolve: Company in liquidation. Company is actively being wound up. Not a going concern. Most likely exit: distressed disposal / insolvency (85/100). Current lenders should be on monthly review.

🏦

Refinance opportunity

1 live charge · oldest 6.8y

65/100

clean up first

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

· Oldest live charge is 6.8 years old — likely at or near maturity.
· Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
· Legal-friction score 35/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.
