FIRST WATER RAMSBURY LIMITED
Company number 04421199 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
First Water Ramsbury Limited presents a HIGH risk profile due to its worsening financial performance, characterized by declining gross margins and widening operating losses. While the company benefits from a clean compliance record and explicit parent company support, its negative EBITDA and eroding net asset base raise serious concerns about viability without continued intervention. The investment thesis depends wholly on the credibility of management's growth projections and the financial strength of the ultimate US parent, both of which require intensive verification.
What it does
The principal activity of the Company is the manufacture of proprietary wound care, healthcare, and consumer care products.
