Pursue
Active trading company with a 78-year-old founder — textbook succession opportunity.

Opportunity 75/100 (strong), bankability 75/100. Strong seller-intent signal (63/100, director aged 78). Share purchase looks the cleaner deal structure. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (65/100).

Data confidence

Overall: low (49/100)
