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: ▲2%; Now £4.9m
Cash at bank: ▼19%; Now £3.6m
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 98
Deferred income: ▼50%; Now £779k
Fixed assets: ▲79%; Now £16m

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