As at the balance sheet date current liquid assets were slightly less than short term debt. We would normally view a company broadly neutrally for this. Total reserves including retained profitability and movement in reserves appeared positive. We would normally view a company positively for this. The balance sheet presents modest net assets. For the size of the company as inferred by the balance sheet the amount of net assets represents a slender margin of cover over total debts and obligations. The latest accounts are not up-to-date. Later accounts are now overdue. Late filing is not a positive factor. Analysis based on the latest figures available must be taken in the context that the figures are not up-to-date.

Company Valuation Analysis Unlock full report

Going Concern Valuation

The going concern valuations value the company on the basis that it continues to trade without the threat of liquidation for the foreseeable future. These valuations are primarily profit and cashflow based.

Valuations Valuation Measures
Estimated High Value £XSI,000 Retained Profit £YX,000
Estimated Mid Value £YY,000 EBIT £SY,000
Estimated Low Value £X,000 EBITDA £SSX,000

Liquidation Valuation

The liquidaton valuation values the company as if it were to cease trading and assets were subject to rapid disposal to cover liabilities. This valuation is primarily asset based.

Valuations Valuation Measures
Estimated High Value £XY,000 Total Assets £XIX,000
Estimated Mid Value £Y,000 Net Assets £YX,000
Estimated Low Value £S,000 Tangible Equity £SX,000

The above valuations are based on our own algorithms and take no account of many factors that can influence actual valuations realized and should not therefore be assumed to be accurate.
