MARKET INTELLIGENCE FOR BETTER BUSINESS
Since 1987, Plimsoll has been at the forefront of industry intelligence. We are a business founded on the belief that complex data can be distilled down to meaningful insights.
Our company name takes inspiration from Samuel Plimsoll, best known for introducing a safe loading line for merchant ships in the 19th century. The same visual principle designed to safeguard against overloading ships was employed by our founder, Don Turkington, to quickly give early warning signs of danger within a company.
The Plimsoll Model is based on the most responsive financial ratios and instantly reveals key elements of a company’s commercial health. This standardised model shows the overall wellbeing of a company, and can be understood by any audience, whether financially trained or not. A single line, rising or falling compared to industry averages, delivers meaningful insight at a glance.
Plimsoll prides itself on the fact we can provide continuously updated analysis on over 1600 different industries across the globe. Using industry lists, directories and customer recommendations, Plimsoll’s multilingual team research and analyse businesses to provide relevant, up-to-the-minute insights. Based on company accounts analysed with our unique algorithms, the standardised Plimsoll Model exposes trends in company performance uninfluenced by opinion.
