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: ▲26%; Now £3.1m
Cash at bank: ▼29%; Now £942k
Headcount: ▼10%; Now 79
Deferred income: ▲48%; Now £2.8m
Fixed assets: ▼42%; Now £155k

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