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 3
- The newest accounts on file are 41 months oldAnyone looking at the company today is reading a year that has already ended. Whatever has improved since is invisible.
- The register shows an owner past retirement age and little elseWithout directors on file, a buyer cannot tell who actually runs the business day to day.
- 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 59,100 against 23,967 for the middle of 165 comparable companies.

A rough bracket, and why it is only that
0.4–0.9× sales£20k£50k
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.
