The liquidator must also report on the conduct of the directors. The company is normally dissolved about three months after the liquidator's final account.

Why did the company go into liquidation?

The Gazette notices record the legal steps, not the cause, so they do not say why the company failed. For a fuller picture, look in the company's filing history at Companies House for the statement of affairs or the office holder's reports, where these have been filed.

How much did the company owe?

The notices do not give a figure, and there are no balance-sheet figures we can show for this company (accounts filed on paper only). What was owed when the process began is set out in the statement of affairs, where one has been filed at Companies House.

Financial figures are taken from the company's own last accounts filed at Companies House. Small and micro-entity accounts are unaudited, and for a company entering an insolvency process the most recent filing frequently predates that process by a year or more. Figures are indicative and are not a valuation. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. © Crown copyright.
