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: ▲0%; Now £4.3m
Cash at bank: ▲63%; Now £173k
Headcount: ▲4%; Now 94
Deferred income: ▲64%; Now £2m
Fixed assets: ▼7%; Now £60.5k

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