Investment thesis

Company dissolved — not a live target.

Why interesting: Historical record only; useful for precedent research.

Why risky: Not transactable.

Opportunity decay

approaching window · 12-months

Approaching a transaction window — refinance or sale event plausible in the next 12 months.

· Oldest live charge 18.9y old — refinance window within 12 months

What this business does

Likely a property management or letting company focused on residential real estate, handling day-to-day landlord operations such as leasing, maintaining, and managing properties in Edinburgh — though its prolonged liquidation and compulsory winding-up proceedings suggest it ceased active trading well before dissolution.

Primary activity: SIC 7012

Sector: Professional, scientific & technical

Investor take

Pass (distressed without resilience)

Distressed unclear — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 45/100 (watch), bankability 55/100. Biggest value-creation lever: Resolve: Company dissolved. Company has been dissolved — it no longer legally exists. Any diligence here is historical only. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (43/100). Current lenders should be on monthly review.

🏦

Refinance opportunity

3 live charges · oldest 18.9y

55/100

too messy

Structure is too messy for a clean refinance right now — clean up first or expect bespoke terms.

· Oldest live charge is 18.9 years old — likely at or near maturity.
· Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
· Legal-friction score 45/100 (high).

Data confidence

Overall: low (45/100)

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

40/100

Moderate signal

Some succession indicators present. Worth watching; approach if sector/strategy fits.

SIGNALS

secondaryStable-but-static management: Company is 19 years old and no new directors in the last 3 years — succession not yet being planned internally.
