SUMMARY

This company is 25.3 years old and is currently active. It is controlled by multiple entities. No P&L financials are available but there is Balance Sheet data. The company has negative equity (net assets) of GBP -54.7 thousand but has improved from GBP -190.1 thousand in the previous year. Although the P&L is not published, we can infer from the Balance Sheet that net profit (less dividends) was GBP 135.4 thousand in the last reported period. Retained earnings is negative (GBP -434.8 thousand), 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 1 other company. 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.
