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: ▲1%; Now £8m
Cash at bank: ▼38%; Now £222k
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 222
Deferred income: ▲41%; Now £507k
Fixed assets: ▲12%; Now £12.5m

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