What this business does
Primary activity: Other service activities n.e.c.
Sector: Other service activities
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)Active trading company. Family succession underway — not a classic acquisition target.
Opportunity 69/100 (strong), bankability 60/100. Same-surname younger director in place — likely family handover, not open to sale. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: family or management succession (50/100).
🏦
Refinance opportunity
2 live charges · oldest 17.2y
85/100
ready
Refinance conversation should be productive — structure clean and timing right.
- · Oldest live charge is 17.2 years old — likely at or near maturity.
- · Single lender — cleanest path to refinance.
- · Legal-friction score 15/100 — clean.
Data confidence
Overall: medium (60/100)Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.

Owner dependency
56/100
Moderate — manageable with handoverSome founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.
FACTORS
- -6 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
- +Senior director age: Director aged approximately 64 — approaching natural succession window.
- +Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.
