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: ▼7%; Now £11m
Cash at bank: ▼10%; Now £3.6m
Headcount: 0%; Now 59
Deferred income: ▼9%; Now £258k
Fixed assets: ▲5%; Now £1.5m

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