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 −£147k
Cash at bank: ▼14%; Now £289k
Headcount: ▼16%; Now 26
Deferred income: ▼31%; Now £453k
Fixed assets: ▼68%; Now £2.3k

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