EDUCATION ABC LIMITED
Company number 04847063 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Education ABC Limited occupies an unusual position within the UK private education sector as a property-backed micro-provider with substantial net assets (£382,969) but critically weak liquidity, evidenced by net current liabilities of £75,765 and cash of just £6,364. The business has experienced a sustained deterioration in its financial position since a 2022 peak, with net assets declining by £58,649 over three years and cash reserves falling by 90%. While freehold property ownership provides long-term stability uncommon in the sector, the company's reliance on directors' loans (£80,029) for funding, minimal reinvestment, and deteriorating cash generation raise questions about its viability as a going concern without continued shareholder support or strategic restructuring.
