Owner dependency
66/100

- +Senior director age: Director aged approximately 58 — approaching natural succession window.

SIGNALS
- secondaryFounder aged 58+: Senior director is approximately 58. Early succession window.
- secondaryTwo-director governance: Small-team governance. Succession depth is thin but not absent.
