Executive summary
Grattan and Hynds Limited is in critical financial condition, having operated with negative net assets for seven consecutive years. The company's July 2025 balance sheet shows liabilities exceeding assets by £265,265, with cash of just £4,735 against current liabilities of £752,846. Survival depends entirely on continued support from group undertakings and creditor forbearance – without which the business faces significant risk of formal insolvency proceedings. Immediate action is required to collect inter-company debts, negotiate with HMRC, and secure documented financial support to substantiate the going concern basis.
