- · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
- · Cashflow trend is negative — lender view likely cautious.

Owner dependency
Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.
- +Two-director setup: Only two active directors — typical of owner-managed SMEs but limits succession.
Succession & seller-readiness
Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.
- secondaryTwo-director governance: Small-team governance. Succession depth is thin but not absent.
