What happens next
A winding-up petition asks the court to place a company into compulsory liquidation. Until an order is made the petition can still be dismissed or withdrawn — if the debt is paid, if it is genuinely disputed on substantial grounds, or if the court is persuaded to adjourn while a rescue is put in place. If an order is made, the company stops trading, its bank accounts are frozen, and a liquidator realises the assets and pays creditors in the order fixed by law; creditors prove their debts to the liquidator or the Official Receiver rather than to the company.

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.
