BULMER & LUMB GROUP LIMITED

Company number 04229894 ·

In Administration

Executive summary

Bulmer & Lumb Group Limited is in critical financial condition, having entered administration after a catastrophic collapse in asset values between 2023 and 2024. Net assets fell by 57% from £5.96M to £2.56M, driven almost entirely by the reversal of £4.56M in property revaluation gains and a 98.4% write-down of tangible assets. The company has operated with dangerously low cash reserves throughout the review period, and the 2023 balance sheet strength was illusory – built on unsustainable property valuations rather than trading performance. With the company now under administrators' control, the focus shifts from financial recovery to maximising returns for creditors, and the business's future as an independent entity is effectively over.
