MALCOLM MCARTHUR & SON LIMITED
Company number SC173168 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Malcolm McArthur & Son Limited presents a strong credit proposition with a five-year track record of revenue growth (26% cumulative), consistently high cash balances exceeding total liabilities, and a rapidly strengthening balance sheet (net assets up 179% to £4.98M in 2025). The company has demonstrated resilience in a cyclical sector, restoring profit margins after inflationary pressures and generating pre-tax profits above £1.3M. While the single-director structure introduces key-person dependency, the overall credit profile supports approval with standard commercial terms subject to quarterly monitoring of margins, debtor days, and order book strength.
