NICHOL MCKAY LIMITED
Company number SC063627 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
NICHOL MCKAY LIMITED has demonstrated remarkable resilience in recovering from a severe deterioration in net assets between 2015-2021, with equity rebuilding from a low of £332K to £734K by 2025. However, the company's financial health remains fundamentally fragile—negative working capital of £570K, critically low cash reserves of £58K, and a conditional going concern basis dependent on funder support create significant vulnerability to any disruption in trading conditions or creditor confidence. The priority must be to accelerate debtor collection, restructure working capital, and build cash reserves before the recovery momentum stalls completely.
