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: ▲33%; Now £2m
Cash at bank: ▲33%; Now £2.6m
Headcount: 0%; Now 30
Deferred income: ▲1156%; Now £4.3m
Fixed assets: ▲834%; Now £99.6k

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