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: ▲10%; Now £8.8m
Cash at bank: ▲3%; Now £4.6m
Headcount: ▼3%; Now 69
Deferred income: ▲70%; Now £202k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £1.9m

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