What a buyer would ask 4
- The last accounts went in 19 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.
- The newest accounts on file are 19 months oldAnyone looking at the company today is reading a year that has already ended. Whatever has improved since is invisible.
- One director on the registerA buyer's first question about a company run by one person is what happens to it if that person stops. It is usually the first thing priced.
- 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 1
- Sales per employee better than three quarters of your tradeYours is 742,800 against 184,492 for the middle of 119 comparable companies.

A rough bracket, and why it is only that
1.5–4× sales£12M£33M
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.
