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: ▲3%; Now £2.5m
Cash at bank: ▼94%; Now £2.6k
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 74
Deferred income: ▼31%; Now £172k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £5.5m

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