LDRA LIMITED
Company number 01206888 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
LDRA Limited presents a financially solvent but deteriorating position, with shareholders' funds falling 40% in the latest year primarily due to substantial dividend extraction by its German parent company rather than operational losses. While the business remains profitable with positive cash flows and adequate liquidity (current ratio 1.55:1), the dramatic reduction in cash reserves and equity cushion leaves it more vulnerable to future trading disruptions. The prognosis is cautiously positive provided dividend extraction returns to sustainable levels and the underlying IT consultancy business maintains its revenue trajectory.
