Market Cap: £34.43M

The company’s dividends are not well covered by free cash flow, raising sustainability concerns despite recent dividend increases, including a special payout of 10 pence per share. While short-term assets cover liabilities comfortably, debt coverage by operating cash flow is weak at 16%, though interest payments are well managed with EBIT coverage at 6.9x.
