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: ▲17%; Now £6.3m
Cash at bank: ▲54%; Now £431k
Headcount: ▼23%; Now 79
Deferred income: ▲640%; Now £296k
Fixed assets: ▲8%; Now £6.6m

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