Nobody can see what you turn over
10.3× spreadYou file abbreviated accounts, as almost every company your size does, so the profit and loss account is not on public record. That band is what your balance sheet implies to anyone who looks: 3 figures against 24,350 companies in the same sector. An opening offer is built on the bottom of it.

How you sit in your trade
slowest tenth typical fastest tenth youEach spread is companies in the same trade and size that did publish a turnover. Creditor days are shown but not marked: neither end of that one is plainly good.
What a buyer would ask 4
- Your turnover is not on fileYou file abbreviated accounts, as most companies your size do, so a buyer cannot see what the business turns over and has to estimate it. Working only from what you filed, the range lands between £618k and £6.4M. An opening offer is built on the low end of whatever they guess.
- The last accounts went in 12 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.
- A director resigned in the past yearA buyer will ask why, and will hear the answer from somewhere. Better from you.
- 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
- Headcount grew from 39 to 43Growth a buyer can verify without asking you for anything.
