WOODBINE DAIRY LIMITED
Company number 04661861 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Woodbine Dairy Limited is in robust financial health, having grown net assets from £1.77M to £4.62M over eight years whilst maintaining very low leverage (debt-to-equity ratio of just 0.20). The business benefits from substantial property assets, strong working capital, and consistent profitability. Two areas warrant ongoing monitoring: a gradual decline in cash reserves from their 2021 peak and a significant increase in trade debtors, which together suggest the working capital cycle may be stretching. Overall, the company is well-positioned to continue its steady growth trajectory with prudent management of cash and debtor collections.
