Executive summary
ARK Community Transport Ltd is a small charitable transport provider showing encouraging recovery in its latest financial year, with net assets tripling to £40,893 and a return to positive working capital. However, the balance sheet remains thin, historical volatility is significant, and the organisation is heavily dependent on local authority contracts for approximately £440k in annual revenue. Credit exposure should be limited to amounts serviceable from operating cash flow, with covenants requiring maintenance of positive net current assets and minimum cash thresholds. Any facility above £25,000-£30,000 would represent a material concentration relative to the charity's equity base and should be approached with caution.
