102KR LTD
Opportunity 73/100 (strong), bankability 67/100. High owner-dependency — earn-out structure likely required for clean transition. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Consolidate lender relationships. 8 distinct lenders creates friction — refinance into single-lender structure for cleaner diligence. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (38/100).
Refinance opportunity
12 live charges · 7 lenders · oldest 34.6y
Refinance would be pressure-driven, not opportunity-driven. Expect tighter margins and covenant scrutiny.
- · Oldest live charge is 34.6 years old — likely at or near maturity.
- · 7 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
- · Distress signals active — lender appetite narrows.
