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: ▲22%; Now £11.6m
Cash at bank: ▲44%; Now £3.5m
Headcount: ▲17%; Now 34
Deferred income: ▲37%; Now £343k
Fixed assets: ▲4%; Now £167k

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