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: ▼27%; Now £4.2m
Cash at bank: ▼54%; Now £397k
Headcount: ▲1%; Now 92
Deferred income: ▲342%; Now £464k
Fixed assets: ▼8%; Now £5.6m

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