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: ▼15%; Now £2.1m
Cash at bank: ▼47%; Now £158k
Headcount: 0%; Now 58
Deferred income: ▲113%; Now £341k
Fixed assets: ▼3%; Now £5.7m

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