COOKE COMPONENTS LTD
Company number 08150077 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Cooke Components Ltd is an active, privately-held bicycle parts distributor with a 13-year operating history and currently positive net assets of £317,678. While the company has recovered from earlier periods of negative equity and demonstrates comfortable short-term liquidity, recent trends — including a 305% stock build-up, 42% net asset erosion over four years, volatile cash balances, a 71% workforce reduction, and sustained dividend distributions to the controlling director — collectively signal a MEDIUM overall risk profile. Due diligence should prioritise verification of turnover trends (unavailable due to small company audit exemption), stock quality, trade debtor recoverability, and the rationale behind the new director's loan before any investment decision.
