FORFAR EDUCATION LTD
Company number 11175313 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
FORFAR EDUCATION LTD presents a conditional credit profile. The company has demonstrated meaningful balance sheet improvement, moving from negative equity of £567K (2022) to positive net assets of £130K (2023), but remains excessively leveraged at 12:1 debt-to-equity with declining cash reserves. The international schools acquisition model explains the leverage structure but introduces execution risk. Any credit facility should require parent company guarantees from Mc Socrates Bidco Limited and be secured against available assets, with close monitoring of cash burn rates and covenant compliance.
