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: ▲6%; Now £11.6m
Cash at bank: ▼68%; Now £136
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 108
Deferred income: ▲23%; Now £158k
Fixed assets: ▲2%; Now £20.2m

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