Primary activity: Construction of roads and motorways
Sector: Construction
Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)
Distressed low-transparency controlled group — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 35/100 (watch), bankability 12/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Asset purchase likely safer than share purchase given structural signals. Biggest value-creation lever: File overdue accounts. Clears statutory overdue flag — immediate bankability uplift for refinance conversations. Most likely exit: asset disposal / carve-out (90/100). Current lenders should be on immediate intervention.

🏦

Refinance opportunity

5 live charges · 4 lenders · oldest 33.5y

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 33.5 years old — likely at or near maturity.
  • · 4 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
  • · Legal-friction score 55/100 (high).

Data confidence

Overall: low (48/100)
