STEM LEARNING LIMITED
Company number 05081097 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
STEM Learning Limited presents a mixed credit profile: strong operational cash generation (£5.4m) and revenue growth (20%) are offset by persistent negative net worth (£-2.69m) driven by USS pension obligations. The underlying trading profit of £Nil indicates the core business is only just covering costs, with reported profit entirely attributable to pension valuation movements. A conditional credit opinion reflects adequate short-term liquidity but significant medium-term risk from pension deficit exposure and funding concentration.
