HG WELLS LTD, NR3 1AB : Companies House Number 03371863

Executive summary

HG Wells Ltd presents a improving credit profile with net assets growing from £24,939 to £326,332 over the past decade and cash strengthening significantly to £276,614. However, the thin working capital position (£5,039 net current assets), heavy reliance on director loans (£228,190), and exposure to the cyclical oil & gas support sector temper what is otherwise a positive trajectory. A conditional approve is recommended, contingent on obtaining director loan subordination and maintaining minimum working capital covenants.
