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: ▲3%; Now £21.6m
Cash at bank: ▼5%; Now £4.4m
Headcount: ▼11%; Now 279
Deferred income: ▲76%; Now £286k
Fixed assets: ▲0%; Now £18.8m

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