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: ▲12%; Now £14m
Cash at bank: ▲43%; Now £6m
Headcount: ▲5%; Now 139
Deferred income: ▼7%; Now £181k
Fixed assets: ▼8%; Now £2.4m

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