MICRO SCOOTERS LIMITED

Company number 05196465 ·

Active

Executive summary

Micro Scooters Limited is a well-established, profitable online retailer with an exceptionally strong balance sheet — net assets of £4.55M, cash of £3.2M, and current ratio of 5.1x. The company has demonstrated consistent growth in shareholders' funds and maintains negligible leverage. The primary credit considerations are seasonal cash flow volatility (evidenced by the 2022 cash trough), inventory concentration risk typical of retail, and the asset-light nature of the business which limits collateral value. Standard credit terms are appropriate given the robust financial position.
