F.R. DAW (TROWBRIDGE) LIMITED
Company number 01500129 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
F.R. Daw (Trowbridge) Limited presents a fundamentally sound financial position characterised by consistent equity growth, strong liquidity, and no long-term debt. The primary risks relate to governance — specifically the unresolved deceased PSC shareholding — and the material off-balance-sheet lease commitment that dwarfs the company's reported annual profit. The significant increase in tax liabilities and employee headcount requires clarification but may simply reflect business growth. Overall, this is a stable, long-established business with manageable risk, though the abbreviated filing regime limits full visibility into profitability.
