MAGNUS BERESFORD EASTER ROW LTD
Opportunity 73/100 (strong), bankability 85/100. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (63/100).
Refinance opportunity
2 live charges · 2 lenders · oldest 5.5y
Refinance would be pressure-driven, not opportunity-driven. Expect tighter margins and covenant scrutiny.
- · Oldest live charge is 5.5 years old — likely at or near maturity.
- · Two lenders — manageable, but coordination required.
- · Cashflow trend is negative — lender view likely cautious.

Overall: high (83/100)Strong data coverage across all sections. AI outputs should be trusted with minimal caveats.
Sector-multiple EBITDA, turnover, and NAV-proxy valuation range with confidence tier — derived from extracted iXBRL financials.

Owner dependency
Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.
- +Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.
Succession & seller-readiness
Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.
