BEYOND THE PROFIT NUMBER

Good businesses can still have hidden weaknesses.

Profit alone does not tell you whether a business is financially healthy. Cash pressure, slow debt collection, weak management information, customer concentration or excessive reliance on the owner can all create risk long before it appears in the annual accounts.

This diagnostic is deliberately practical and quick. It is designed to identify where a closer look may be worthwhile — without asking you to upload sensitive financial information.

01
No sensitive figures.

Your answers are scored in your browser and are not submitted to us.

02
Commercial questions.

The diagnostic focuses on how the business is actually managed, not cosmetic metrics.

03
Direction, not diagnosis.

Your score highlights discussion priorities. It is not an audit, valuation or formal assurance conclusion.

01 — TAKE THE DIAGNOSTIC

Twenty-four questions.
One clearer picture.

Answer on the basis of how the business operates today, not how you intend it to operate. The useful result is the accurate one, not the flattering one.

This Business Health Check provides general initial guidance only and is based entirely on your self-assessment. It is not an audit, assurance engagement, valuation, credit assessment, financial forecast or substitute for professional advice. No liability is accepted for decisions made solely from the diagnostic result. Your answers are processed locally in your browser and are not transmitted to Ashworth Bailey by this page.

02 — THE METHOD

Six lenses on
one business.

Each pillar contributes equally to the headline score. The result is intentionally directional: it helps identify discussion priorities rather than manufacture false precision from a short online questionnaire.

01 / PROFITABILITY

Profit quality & margin

Consistency, pricing, margin visibility and cost discipline.

02 / CASH

Liquidity & headroom

Cash resilience, forecasting, tax reserves and contingency capacity.

03 / WORKING CAPITAL

Cash conversion

Debtors, stock/WIP, suppliers and the cash cost of growth.

04 / CONTROL

Financial visibility

Close speed, management accounts, variance review and controls.

05 / RESILIENCE

Risk & continuity

Customer concentration, continuity, cyber/recovery and risk management.

06 / DEPENDENCY

Owner independence

Delegation, documented processes, management depth and exit readiness.
