COX WOKINGHAM PLASTICS LIMITED
Company number 02959737 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Cox Wokingham Plastics Limited presents a mixed risk profile. On the positive side, the company is debt-free with strong liquidity (£1.12M cash) and a 30-year operating history. However, the systematic distribution of dividends exceeding profits—resulting in a 29% erosion of net assets over two years—combined with a 68% profit decline and shrinking operational scale, raises legitimate concerns about whether the controlling shareholder is extracting value at the expense of the company's long-term resilience. The key question for any investor is whether the dividend policy is sustainable and whether the profit decline represents a temporary normalization or a structural deterioration in the business.
