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: ▲13%; Now £3.5m
Cash at bank: ▲61%; Now £338k
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 64
Deferred income: ▲24%; Now £353k
Fixed assets: ▲12%; Now £5.7m

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