What this business does

Primary activity: Non-trading company

Sector: Professional, scientific & technical

Investor take

Pursue

Dormant / non-trading. Family succession underway — not a classic acquisition target.

Opportunity 79/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Same-surname younger director in place — likely family handover, not open to sale. Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

Owner dependency

63/100

High — earn-out structure required

Material founder dependency. Consider a 2-3 year earn-out and build in a handover plan before completion.

FACTORS

-4 active directors: Broader management team in place — suggests transferable governance.
+Founder age: Director aged approximately 76 — succession pressure is live.
+Family involvement: Multiple officers share a surname — likely family business, which concentrates governance.

Succession & seller-readiness

20/100

No succession signal

No meaningful acquirability indicators from public data.

SIGNALS

primaryFamily succession underway: Not a takeover target — HARRIS, Ross Aitken (same surname) appointed 2024-07-29. Pattern consistent with intra-family handover.
primaryFounder aged 70+: Senior director is approximately 76 years old. Natural succession window is now.

Red flags

clean

No red flags detected from available public data. (This is not a clean bill of health — detailed accounts review still recommended.)
