As trading deteriorates, the City is growing increasingly nervous about Boohooβs spiralling debt levels. It swung from a positive cash position of Β£6m to Β£95m of net debt in the most recent financial year β equivalent to a net cash outflow of Β£101m, though company insiders point out it had Β£200m of cash on its balance sheet as of February.
Nevertheless, questions are now being asked about the ability of Boohoo to meet several looming debt repayments. The company has a Β£325m unsecured overdraft, which it has drawn down fully and must be repaid in two instalments over the next 18 months.
