CLIFTON COLLEGE SERVICES LIMITED
Company number 02866554 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Clifton College Services Limited is in good financial health with strong revenue growth of nearly 30% and healthy profitability, earning a B+ rating. However, early symptoms of growth strain are evident: trade debtors grew at nearly triple the rate of turnover, administrative expenses are outpacing revenue growth, and the fixed asset base is declining. With cash reserves of nearly £750,000 and no long-term debt, the business has excellent defensive strength, but should focus on tightening credit management, controlling overhead growth, and ensuring adequate reinvestment in physical infrastructure to sustain its commercial operations supporting Clifton College.
