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: ▲1%; Now £9.7m
Cash at bank: ▲34%; Now £6.4m
Headcount: 0%; Now 22
Deferred income: ▼27%; Now £1.9m
Fixed assets: ▼33%; Now £862

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