KAMPANGO LTD

1. Industry Classification

Kampango Ltd is classified under SIC 62020, Information technology consultancy activities, placing it within the UK’s computer programming, consultancy and related activities sector (SIC division 62). This is a highly fragmented, low-barrier-to-entry market characterised by project-based engagements, reliance on specialised human capital, and a large population of micro-entities and owner-managed practices. The company is a private limited company incorporated in 2014, registered in Eastleigh, and files as a micro-entity under FRS 105. Its accounts are unaudited and delivered under the small companies regime, with the profit and loss account not filed at Companies House.

2. Relative Performance

Against typical micro-entity IT consultancy metrics, Kampango Ltd shows a steadily strengthening balance sheet. Net assets have increased from £42,206 in the year ending 30 June 2017 to £295,635 in the year ending 30 June 2026, while total assets have grown from £64,935 to £300,913 over the same period. The company operates with minimal gearing: creditors falling due within one year were £5,278 at 30 June 2026 (down from £2,594 the prior year), and there is no indication of material borrowings. Current assets stood at £162,676 against fixed assets of £138,237, giving a comfortable working-capital position.

However, two features distinguish it from many sector peers. First, the accounts state the average number of employees was zero in both 2026 and 2025, suggesting a director-led service model rather than an employed consultancy team. Second, because the accounts are filleted and no profit and loss account is publicly filed, turnover, gross margin and profitability cannot be benchmarked against sector norms. Total assets of £300,913 place the company close to the upper micro-entity balance-sheet threshold of £316,000, meaning any further asset growth could push it into the small-company filing category.

3. Sector Trends Impact

The UK IT consultancy market is being shaped by sustained demand for digital transformation, cloud migration, cybersecurity and, increasingly, artificial intelligence integration. Micro consultancies such as Kampango Ltd typically compete through niche expertise, client relationships and flexible engagement models rather than scale. The absence of employees insulates the business from wage inflation and employer national insurance cost pressures, but it also limits capacity to take on large or concurrent client assignments.

Broader market conditions—including corporate IT budget discipline, the off-payroll working (IR35) rules affecting contractor supply chains, and economic uncertainty affecting discretionary technology spend—are relevant to all consultancies in this segment. For a single-PSC, director-controlled business, client concentration and the availability of the principal to deliver billable work are likely to be the principal operational sensitivities, though these are not disclosed in the filed accounts.

4. Competitive Positioning

Kampango Ltd is best characterised as a niche, owner-controlled micro player rather than a sector leader or broad-based follower. The PSC holds more than 75% of shares and voting rights and has the right to appoint and remove directors, indicating concentrated control.

Relative to typical competitors in SIC 62020: * Strengths: an unleveraged balance sheet, accumulated reserves of nearly £296,000, low overheads (no employees reported), audit-exempt status, and consistent year-on-year net asset growth. * Weaknesses: dependence on a single director, undisclosed revenue and profit performance, current assets declining from £180,616 to £162,676 between 2025 and 2026, and proximity to the micro-entity asset ceiling.

Many competitors in this sector employ consultants, maintain offices and publish turnover well above micro thresholds. Kampango Ltd appears to compete on agility and a low fixed-cost base rather than on capacity or brand scale.
