Investor take
Pursue
Active trading company with a 75-year-old founder — textbook succession opportunity.

Opportunity 77/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Strong seller-intent signal (63/100, director aged 75). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: strategic trade sale (73/100).

50/100
clean up first

  • · Oldest live charge is 14.2 years old — likely at or near maturity.
  • · Two lenders — manageable, but coordination required.
  • · Legal-friction score 28/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.
