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: ▲21%; Now £1.9m
Cash at bank: ▲201%; Now £2.9m
Headcount: ▲24%; Now 21
Deferred income: ▲42%; Now £411k
Fixed assets: ▲154%; Now £226k

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