While the company remains solvent with adequate headline liquidity, the adjusted working capital position is thinner once the £20,049 director's loan receivable is excluded, and minimal fixed assets mean there is negligible security available. Credit should only be extended on a conditional basis with full management accounts, personal guarantees from controlling shareholders, and close ongoing monitoring of the net asset trajectory.","website":"http://www.wardandsnape.co.uk","links":{"page":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/ltd/ward-snape","people":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/ward-snape/people","filing_history":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/ward-snape/filing-history","companies_house":"https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/05278527","financials":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/ward-snape/financial","control":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/ward-snape/control","ai_analysis":"https://www.companiesintheuk.co.uk/company/ward-snape/analysis"},"source":"CompaniesInTheUK, from Companies House, The Gazette and other public registers (see /support/about).
