Executive summary

Arch Timber Protection Limited presents a mixed credit profile: it has achieved significant revenue (£33.5m in six months) and benefits from parent company backing and a long industry heritage, but the fundamental restructuring in July 2024 and inflated profit figures from acquisition accounting create substantial uncertainty around true financial health. The £1 share capital provides minimal equity protection, and without full balance sheet and cash flow data, a definitive credit assessment cannot be completed. Conditional approval is recommended pending receipt of complete audited financial statements and clarification of parent company support arrangements.
