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: ▼10%; Now £5.9m
Cash at bank: ▲295%; Now £663k
Headcount: ▼11%; Now 49
Deferred income: ▼5%; Now £69.2k
Fixed assets: ▲40%; Now £859k

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