Executive summary
ALACO LIMITED is a long-established, profitable business intelligence firm with strong net assets of £7.8M and a clean audit from Forvis Mazars, operating within a US private equity-backed group structure. However, the company exhibits a concerning liquidity trajectory—cash reserves have declined 94% over three years to just £220k, while total liabilities have grown nearly fivefold to £5.1M—requiring close examination of the balance sheet composition, the nature of these liabilities, and the intercompany relationship with its parent Sigma7 group.
