What a buyer would ask 2
- The last accounts went in 10 months after year endThe allowance is nine. A buyer reads a late filing as a question about the finance function rather than about the trading.
- No website on file against the companyThe first thing anyone does with a company number is look for the business behind it. Finding nothing is its own answer.
What a buyer would like 3
- 32 years of trading on fileLongevity is the cheapest evidence there is that the business is not one contract.
- Headcount grew from 95 to 115Growth a buyer can verify without asking you for anything.
- A board that has been together ten years or moreContinuity a buyer does not have to take on trust.

A rough bracket, and why it is only that
0.4–0.9× sales£5.4M£12M
The turnover range is fitted on UK companies that did file one. The multiple is a published sector average from Dutch mid-market deals, not from your own numbers and not from your own market. Treat this as the opening bracket of a conversation, not a valuation.
