Executive summary

Cicero Consulting Limited presents a mixed risk profile, transitioning from a standalone entity to a subsidiary of the global Havas Group. While 2019 financials reveal a concerning liquidity shortfall and significant operating losses, the acquisition by Havas UK provides a crucial financial backstop, mitigating immediate solvency concerns. The primary risk lies in the staleness of the financial data and the uncertainty regarding how the pre-existing working capital deficit has weathered pandemic-related revenue pressures. Further due diligence is required to ascertain the current position under the new ownership structure.
