Why CCJs matter
County court judgments are a strong public signal of payment difficulty. A single small, satisfied judgment from over two years ago carries far less weight than recent or unsatisfied ones. CCJ data is sourced from the Registry Trust.

Estimated Low Value£1,500,000Tangible Equity£2,992,500
Two ways to value the company
The going-concern valuation assumes the company keeps trading and is profit and cashflow based, here driven by retained profit, EBIT and EBITDA. The liquidation valuation assumes trading stops and assets are sold quickly to cover liabilities, so it is asset based, using total assets, net assets and tangible equity. Both are indicative only.

At a glance
The checklist turns the detail into simple ticks and flags. Here the picture is strongly positive.
Written financial analysis

This appraisal is based on the company’s results to 30 September 2025. Turnover reached £9,640,000, up from £9,020,000 the year before and £8,430,000 two years earlier, with growth in every one of the last five years. The gross margin has held steady at around 31%, so the extra sales have fed through to profit rather than being given away on price.

Pre-tax profit rose to £592,000 and EBITDA reached £798,000, up from £688,000 the previous year. Directors’ remuneration for the year was £360,000. After tax and modest dividends the company retained £384,000 of profit, continuing to build reserves.

The balance sheet is comfortable. Working capital stands at £2,092,500, with current assets well above amounts due within the year, and net assets have grown to £2,992,500. Long-term debt is modest and falling, and gearing has eased as reserves have built. On this evidence the company presents a low credit risk, and the suggested credit limit reflects that.

An independent failure measure
The Altman Z-Score is a long-established, independent measure of business-failure risk that combines several financial ratios into one number. Above 2.6 is the low-risk band, 1.1 to 2.6 is a cautionary middle zone, and below 1.1 indicates higher risk. Here the score of 4.51 sits comfortably in the low-risk band.
