RICHMOND DEFENCE SYSTEMS LIMITED

Company number 07990546 ·

Active

Executive summary

Richmond Defence Systems Limited presents a deteriorating credit profile, with net assets falling 73.6% to £1.16M and the P&L reserve moving into deficit, reflecting a substantial loss in FY2025. While a £2.1M director loan injection and positive net current assets of £733K provide some buffer, the post-year-end change of control, capital reduction, and the CBILS debenture over all assets significantly increase uncertainty. A CONDITIONAL recommendation is appropriate—any facility should require enhanced security, quarterly monitoring, and full clarification of the ownership restructuring before drawdown.
