Owner dependency

50/100

Moderate — manageable with handover

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

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100

Weak signal

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

Red flags

clean

No red flags detected from available public data. (This is not a clean bill of health — detailed accounts review still recommended.)
