DE BURGH FINE WINE LIMITED

Company number SC435185 ·

Active

Executive summary

De Burgh Fine Wine Limited exhibits robust financial health with a strong A- rating, characterised by six consecutive years of net asset growth, a conservative 30.4% debt-to-assets ratio, and cash reserves exceeding total liabilities. The 2024 deceleration in growth to 7.6% (from 20.6% in 2023) warrants monitoring but likely reflects normalisation after exceptional post-pandemic years or strategic inventory investment. The company's primary strengths are its self-funded growth model and exceptional liquidity; its key vulnerabilities are key-person dependency and the need to ensure declining cash balances reflect appreciating wine stock rather than operational pressure.
