Investment thesis
Company converted closed — not a live target.
Why interesting: Historical record only; useful for precedent research.
Why risky: Not transactable.

What this business does
Primary activity: SIC 8042
Sector: Administrative & support services
Investor take
Pursue
Unclear. Reasonable fundamentals — worth a memo before deciding.

Opportunity 66/100 (strong), bankability 80/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (63/100).

🏦

Refinance opportunity

1 live charge · oldest 31.4y

85/100
ready

Refinance conversation should be productive — structure clean and timing right.

  • · Oldest live charge is 31.4 years old — likely at or near maturity.
  • · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
  • · Legal-friction score 20/100 — clean.
