While the company demonstrated strong profitability, healthy cash reserves, and positive net assets at that reporting date, the significant increase in debtors, complete turnover of the directorate, relocation of the registered office, and complex ownership structure involving Xerox (UK) Limited create substantial uncertainty about the current financial position. Any investment or credit decision should be predicated on obtaining and reviewing accounts for the period from October 2017 onwards, as well as understanding the current group structure and governance arrangements.","website":"https://www.arenagroup.net","links":{"page":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/arena-group","people":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/people","filing_history":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/filing-history","companies_house":"https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02168309","financials":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/financial","control":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/control","charges":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/charges","ai_analysis":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/arena-group/analysis"},"source":"CompaniesInTheUK, from Companies House, The Gazette and other public registers (see /support/about).
