First-pass take

UK insolvency litigation financing company with zero AI exposure. Strong cash generation (£9.4m operating CF, up 88%) funded organic case investment, but low profit margins (2.9%) and gross margin compression (38.6%→34.2%) despite 16% revenue growth. Counter-cyclical demand is defensive but dependent on elevated UK insolvency levels remaining above historical norms.
