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: —; Now £6.9m
Cash at bank: —; Now £12.4m
Headcount: —; Now 91
Deferred income: —; Now £555k
Fixed assets: —; Now £127k

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