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 £30.3m
Cash at bank: ▲30%; Now £5m
Headcount: 0%; Now 50
Deferred income: ▼67%; Now £703k
Fixed assets: ▼19%; Now £3.2m

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