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 £4.5m
Cash at bank: ▲38%; Now £658k
Headcount: ▲11%; Now 40
Deferred income: ▼57%; Now £82.8k
Fixed assets: ▼11%; Now £2.2m

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