What this business does
Primary activity: Non-trading company
Sector: Professional, scientific & technical
Investor take
PursueStrong opportunity: dormant / non-trading with strong profile and acceptable with review structure.
Opportunity 75/100 (strong), bankability 65/100. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Discharge stale live charges. 12 live charge(s) created 15+ years ago — likely paid but undischarged. Clean register. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).
