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: ▲18%; Now £1.7m
Cash at bank: ▲22%; Now £854k
Headcount: ▼5%; Now 81
Deferred income: ▲167%; Now £249k
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £1.6m

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