Showing most recent 50 of 134 events

Owner dependency

40/100
Moderate — manageable with handover

Some founder dependency, but not acute. A structured handover period should cover most risk.

FACTORS
  • -6 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.

Succession & seller-readiness

30/100
Weak signal

Limited succession signal. Not a near-term off-market candidate.

Red flags

2 med ·
4 director resignations in last 12 months
medium

Multiple recent departures can indicate governance disagreement, succession event, or preparation for sale/stress.

Evidence: BRANNEN, Ilona Florence resigned 2025-09-12; BURROWS, David Stuart resigned 2025-12-31; KANE, Thomas Christopher resigned 2026-03-31

Name changed 2 times
medium

Name changes can be benign (rebrand) but can also precede distress, phoenix activity, or buyer concealment.

Evidence: 2024-08-13: certificate-change-of-name-company; 2024-07-31: certificate-change-of-name-company
