MAWSLEY MACHINERY LIMITED
Company number 01522617 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Mawsley Machinery Limited, a 44-year-old construction equipment distributor and subsidiary of Manitou BF SA, presents a deteriorating standalone credit profile with net assets declining 50% to £985k, near-zero cash (£136), and an operating loss of £233k in 2024 following a 60% revenue decline from 2021 peaks. The extraction of £762k in dividends during a loss-making year further weakens the creditor position. However, group cash pooling arrangements and parental support provide meaningful comfort. Any credit facility should be CONDITIONAL upon a parent company guarantee from Manitou BF SA, with close monitoring of revenue recovery, cash position, and margin trends through the current cyclical downturn.
