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: ▲4%; Now £9.8m
Cash at bank: ▲12%; Now £2.6m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 72
Deferred income: ▼61%; Now £298k
