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: ▲26%; Now £3.4m
Cash at bank: ▲82%; Now £2.4m
Headcount: ▲13%; Now 17
Deferred income: ▼22%; Now £57.6k
Fixed assets: ▲831%; Now £120k

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