TRANSLUX INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Company number 02406224 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Translux International Limited is a well-established, market-leading film and TV facilities provider with a £39.4m asset base and £37.9m revenue, but credit quality is under pressure from deteriorating profitability (net margin -1.9%), rising leverage (57% gearing), and declining cash reserves (£697k). The business benefits from strong market position, diversified production portfolio, and positive EBITDA (£5.96m), but any credit extension should include covenants requiring EBITDA margin maintenance, leverage caps, and minimum cash thresholds to mitigate the risk of further financial erosion.
