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: ▼39%; Now £2.1m
Cash at bank: ▼5%; Now £476k
Headcount: ▼7%; Now 25
Deferred income: ▼28%; Now £248k
Fixed assets: ▲56%; Now £46k

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