Owner dependency

45/100
Moderate — manageable with handover

Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.

FACTORS
  • -6 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
  • +Young company: Only 1.1 years old — management layer unlikely to be developed.

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100
Weak signal

Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.

Red flags

1 med ·
3 director resignations in last 12 months
medium

Multiple recent departures can indicate governance disagreement, succession event, or preparation for sale/stress.

Evidence: FORRESTER, Simon resigned 2025-08-28; FORRESTER, Simon resigned 2025-08-28; FREELAND, Luke Elliot resigned 2026-02-13
