Executive summary
ACME (Brighton) Ltd presents a mixed credit profile. While the balance sheet shows net assets of £279k with minimal external liabilities, approximately 47% of total assets comprise related party receivables and director loans of questionable liquidity. Cash has depleted by 82% over two years (from £398k to £72k), and the P&L reserve indicates a £57.5k loss in 2024, with employee headcount halving from 7 to 3. Credit facilities should be conditional on understanding related party exposures and supported by personal guarantees, with limits based on realizable asset values rather than stated net assets.
