NEWLYN PLC
Company number 03770985 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Newlyn PLC operates a fundamentally sound and growing business in debt enforcement services, with revenue increasing from £13.2M to £33.0M over five years. However, the 2025 Employee Ownership Trust transaction has introduced material risk through a cross-guarantee for the parent's £32.5M NatWest acquisition facility, while net assets have declined 76% from their 2023 peak to just £3.95M due to aggressive dividend extraction totalling £22.84M over two years. Credit approval should be conditional on obtaining full details of the charge structure and confirming that any new facility would rank at least pari passu with the NatWest obligation.
