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 £3.8m
Cash at bank: ▲61%; Now £62.3k
Headcount: ▲13%; Now 63
Deferred income: ▼63%; Now £67.4k
Fixed assets: ▼27%; Now £3.3m

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