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: ▲21%; Now £40.6m
Cash at bank: ▲19%; Now £16.9m
Headcount: ▲5%; Now 337
Deferred income: ▲19%; Now £10.3m
Fixed assets: ▲10%; Now £2.2m

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