DATUM ALLOYS LTD
Company number 02834675 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Datum Alloys demonstrates strong standalone financial performance with net assets of £4.4M and consistent year-on-year growth, but carries a material going concern uncertainty due to Group-level net liabilities of £1.76M and unresolved ownership/funding changes. The company's liquidity is heavily dependent on debtor collection (£5.09M, 80% of current assets) and external financial support from Rockpool Investments LLP. A CONDITIONAL credit opinion reflects the fundamental trading strength offset by significant structural and group-level risks that require resolution before full confidence can be placed in the entity's capacity to service additional debt obligations.
