You 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 101 companies in the same trade. An opening offer is built on the bottom of it.

Each 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 5
- 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 £127k and £731k. An opening offer is built on the low end of whatever they guess.
- The newest accounts on file are 29 months oldAnyone looking at the company today is reading a year that has already ended. Whatever has improved since is invisible.
- A director resigned in the past yearA buyer will ask why, and will hear the answer from somewhere. Better from you.
- Headcount fell from 24 to 16A buyer sees the fall and not the reason. Deliberate tightening and losing people look identical on a filing.
- 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
- 96 years of trading on fileLongevity is the cheapest evidence there is that the business is not one contract.
