Owner dependency
Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.
- -4 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
- +Founder name in company name: Company name contains director surname "BELL" — strong identity link between founder and business.
- +Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.
- +Young company: Only 1.4 years old — management layer unlikely to be developed.
Succession & seller-readiness
