    It's very naive to make any kind of judgement on such limited information.

    If you look at their previous accounts you will actually see their net worth has gone from negative over quarter million to a positive £11k.
    It also doesn't give any information about its fixed assets etc - which it would seem they have significant assets to push a net worth in the a + number with current liabilities of £400k.
    We also don't know what dividends was drawn. For all we know they drew all the cash as dividends and have anticipated current liabilities can be covered by reasonably projected revenue.

    In addition we don't know how their accounts are drawn up - as accounts can show losses even if in reality a profit was made. A taxi company for example may opt to claim the mileage rate on a taxi at 45p/25p @ 80k miles/year = £22k compared to actual maintenance, capital and insurance of closer to £4-£6k.

    You need to see the full set of accounts really. Making the whole point of this thread moot.

    Whoosh!! that went over your head obviously, the thread is a tongue in cheek dig at anpr ltd the standing joke of a parking company, sorry that you don't get it

    And to have zero cash, money in any bank account?

    According to Duedil.com, the cash is "Not Reported" rather than £0

    I don't think companies folding and people losing their livelyhoods is something to joke about.

    Even when those companies flout the law and act in a completely unconscionable manner?

    Why, they only exist because the dvla allows them too, they prey on people and are unethical! So I want all I think circa 200 parking companies to liquidate ! The same as the clampers, a lot of them folded and pheonixed, no tears were shed!

    And ANPR Ltd are a joke!
