Primary activity: Private security activities
Sector: Administrative & support services
Investor take
Worth a lookActive trading company. Reasonable fundamentals — worth a memo before deciding.
Opportunity 63/100 (worth a look), bankability 57/100. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Consolidate lender relationships. 12 distinct lenders creates friction — refinance into single-lender structure for cleaner diligence. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (38/100).
🏦
Refinance opportunity
20 live charges · 12 lenders · oldest 48.0y
25/100
too messy
Structure is too messy for a clean refinance right now — clean up first or expect bespoke terms.
- · Oldest live charge is 48.0 years old — likely at or near maturity.
- · 12 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
- · Legal-friction score 53/100 (high).
Data confidence
Overall: medium (58/100)Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.
