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: ▲11%; Now £6.5m
Cash at bank: ▲10%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▲18%; Now 71
Deferred income: ▼12%; Now £1.4m
Fixed assets: ▼14%; Now £4.4m

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