SHUFFLEBOTTOM LIMITED
Company number 02016366 · Monitor this company
Executive summary
Shufflebottom Limited has moved from consistent profitability to a significant loss in FY2025, with gross margins compressing from 26% to 18% and a pre-tax loss of £1.3M replacing the prior year's £1.8M profit. While the company possesses a 39-year track record, historically strong equity growth, and adequate cash reserves, the severity of this reversal and the acknowledged unhedged steel price risk create material credit concerns. Conditional approval is appropriate pending satisfactory explanation of the margin decline, evidence of trading recovery in FY2026, and appropriate covenant structures to protect the bank's position.
