C-QUIP LIMITED
Company number 02237248 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
C-Quip Limited presents a mixed risk profile. The company has demonstrated consistent net asset growth and improved its working capital position, with net assets rising from approximately £103,000 in 2016 to £245,411 in 2020. However, significant related party exposures (particularly the £215,689 owed to Aqualine Marketing Limited), a quick ratio of 0.70 reflecting heavy inventory concentration, and emerging long-term debt warrant careful scrutiny. The company's financial health is closely tied to its parent and connected entities, creating interdependence risk that would materialise rapidly under stress conditions. Further due diligence on the terms of related party debts, inventory quality, and the parent company's financial position is recommended before any investment commitment.
