APL CONSTRUCTION SERVICES LTD
Company number 09113367 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
APL Construction Services Ltd is in liquidation, rendering its financial health assessment terminal despite apparent improvement in its 2023 accounts. The company's history reveals chronic undercapitalisation with negligible equity throughout most of its trading life, dangerous concentration in work-in-progress (£541,318 representing 63.6% of current assets), and excessive leverage with a debt-to-equity ratio of 8.44:1. The apparent growth in 2023 was likely a catalyst for failure rather than recovery, as rapid expansion financed by trade creditors ultimately proved unsustainable. Creditors should register claims with the liquidator and expect significant write-downs on work-in-progress.
