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 £7.5m
Cash at bank: ▼47%; Now £105k
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 117
Deferred income: ▼66%; Now £93.6k
Fixed assets: ▲12%; Now £3m

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