What this business does

Primary activity: Specialised design activities

Sector: Professional, scientific & technical

Investor take

Special-situation opportunity

Distressed professional-services with salvageable qualities — special-situations priority.

Opportunity 62/100 (worth a look), bankability 60/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Cash flow review and working-capital discipline. Cash down -40% YoY — forensic review of receivables, stock turns, and creditor days. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (58/100).

Data confidence

Overall: medium (78/100)

Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.
