neutral · A punctual record breaks
This company filed 3 consecutive financial years on time. The year that closed on 31-12-2025 was due by 31-07-2026 and was filed on 31-08-2026, 31 days late. Weigh it accordingly: a break into the 1-to-90-day band measures 1.41% abnormal legal state, below the 1.66% market average. It is a change in behaviour, not evidence of elevated risk.
