Owner dependency
Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.
- +Two-director setup: Only two active directors — typical of owner-managed SMEs but limits succession.
- +Founder age: Director aged approximately 65 — succession pressure is live.
- +Young company: Only 0.8 years old — management layer unlikely to be developed.

Multiple signals suggest succession is on the horizon. Candidate for proactive outreach.
