Sector: Construction

Investor take
Pass (distressed without resilience)Distressed unclear — structural issues outweigh the discount.
Opportunity 60/100 (worth a look), bankability 80/100. Strong seller-intent signal (68/100, director aged 65). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Biggest value-creation lever: Resolve: Company dissolved. Company has been dissolved — it no longer legally exists. Any diligence here is historical only. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).
🏦
