AAA TRAVEL LIMITED
Opportunity 76/100 (strong), bankability 70/100. Same-surname younger director in place — likely family handover, not open to sale. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure.

Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

Solid opportunity signal. Worth a dedicated memo and management meeting.
