P&O FERRIES (SHORT SEA) LIMITED
CHANNEL HOUSE, CHANNEL VIEW ROAD, DOVER, KENT, CT17 9TJCompany Number: 03242391
Incorporation date: 27-Aug-1996
Status: Active
Entity type: Private Limited Company
SIC codes:
50100 Sea and coastal passenger water transport
SUMMARY
This company is 27.6 years old and is currently active. It is controlled by P&O Ferries Division Holdings Ltd. The company has negative equity (net assets) of GBP -3.8 million which has worsened since the previous year's figure of GBP -3 million. The company is both loss making and has negative equity, it is therefore likely to go bankrupt unless it can raise funding or business has improved since the last accounts were filed. Retained earnings is negative (GBP -18.8 million), which means the company has aggregate losses since it's inception or it has paid more dividends than it can afford; given the company's age, this is a sign of serious financial problems. The company has 2 active officers (directors or partners) who are or were officers of 18 other companies. The company has no public disputes filed on the Business Disputes Register. There are no court cases involving the company that we are aware of.FINANCIALS (BETA)
