Two businesses can make the same profit and still attract very different offers.

That is because buyers look beyond the headline figures.

Clear accounts, maintainable profit, a credible growth plan, a resilient customer base and a business that can operate without its owner can all influence the price they are prepared to pay.

Our latest blog explores the five factors that shape a company’s sale price and explains why preparing for a sale should begin years, rather than months, before you plan to step away.

A 7% profit margin might look healthy. But what if comparable businesses are making 12%?

Accurate accounts tell clients what happened. Industry comparisons help them understand what those figures mean, and where they might go next.

Our latest blog looks at how accountants can use Plimsoll to bring more context to conversations about performance, risk, valuations and growth.

There’s no need to fly solo.

Could your business be losing value without you realising it?

Strong sales do not always mean that a company’s value is increasing. Changes in profitability, financial strength, customer relationships and the way the business operates can all affect what it may be worth.

Some of these risks develop gradually and may not be obvious from turnover alone. Recognising them early gives business owners more time to make improvements and protect the value they have built.

A Plimsoll Business Valuation provides an independent assessment of your company and explains the financial and commercial factors influencing the result.

Despite headlines to the contrary, the UK economy is heading into 2026 relatively stable.

The number of companies in financial jeopardy is down marginally while productivity is improving. However, as geopolitical tensions persist, there is concern for tightening pre-tax profit margins.

Less drama than the headlines suggest, but not quite a comfortable year for British Businesses.

No one knows what 2026 will bring for British businesses. Asset prices look stretched, global alliances are shifting, conflicts in Europe continue to escalate and trade tensions are rising. History shows that every crisis arrives faster than expected and from directions few anticipate.

When shocks hit, it is the companies that enter uncertainty with financial resilience, operational discipline and the ability to pivot at speed that survive.

The firms that thrived through past downturns did so because they strengthened their foundations before the crisis arrived. Their experiences offer vital lessons for leaders navigating today’s unpredictable climate.

Swipe through for five insights from companies that endured the unexpected and emerged stronger.
