Indirect — not revenue

Balance-sheet signals

Year-on-year changes in filed balance-sheet items. They can hint at momentum (or investment) but are not revenue or profit and must not be read as such.

Net assets: ▲4%; Now £12.5m
Cash at bank: ▲235%; Now £4m
Headcount: ▼1%; Now 129
Deferred income: ▲24%; Now £105k
Fixed assets: ▼6%; Now £2.2m

Deferred income is reported together with accruals in this filing (“accruals and deferred income”), so it is an approximate signal only.
