What this business does

Primary activity: SIC 46450

Sector: Wholesale & retail

Investor take

Pass (distressed without resilience)

Distressed active trading company — structural issues outweigh the discount.

Opportunity 66/100 (strong), bankability 57/100. Strong seller-intent signal (60/100, director aged 67). Asset purchase likely safer than share purchase given structural signals. Biggest value-creation lever: Consolidate lender relationships. 3 distinct lenders creates friction — refinance into single-lender structure for cleaner diligence. Most likely exit: share sale to pe / searcher (45/100).

🏦

Refinance opportunity

4 live charges · 3 lenders · oldest 9.1y

35/100

too messy

Refinance path is blocked by complexity. Rethink structure or expect bespoke, expensive terms.

· Oldest live charge is 9.1 years old — likely at or near maturity.
· 3 lenders named — inter-creditor friction likely.
· Legal-friction score 38/100 — workable, but lender will want more DD.

Data confidence

Overall: medium (55/100)

Adequate coverage. AI outputs are reliable for the sections scored high; verify the rest in diligence.

55/100

50/100

Evidence: DONOVAN, Michael John resigned 2025-10-17; ELRICK, Marc Joseph resigned 2025-09-09; OSBORN, Hamish Duncan Adam resigned 2025-09-09
