SEASONED VENUES LTD
Company number 04054659 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
SEASONED VENUES LTD presents a mixed risk profile: the company has recovered substantially from near-insolvency in FY2020, with improved cash and reduced liabilities, but shows signs of renewed trading pressure in FY2024 with a declining P&L reserve. The dominant control by Crown Holdings Limited (>75%) and the unusually large board of 14 directors for a small entity raise governance and dependency concerns. Key risks centre on debtor concentration, probable FY2024 losses, and the need to understand the parent company's financial position and intercompany relationships before making a full assessment.
