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: ▲5%; Now £4.3m
Cash at bank: ▲57%; Now £3.7m
Headcount: ▲5%; Now 124
Deferred income: ▲144%; Now £1.6m
Fixed assets: ▼38%; Now £75.9k

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