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: ▲8%; Now £3.1m
Cash at bank: ▲36%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▲17%; Now 7
Deferred income: ▲90%; Now £2.2m
Fixed assets: ▼55%; Now £22.1k

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