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: ▲90%; Now £4.6m
Cash at bank: ▼95%; Now £25k
Headcount: ▼2%; Now 244
Deferred income: ▼1%; Now £270k
Fixed assets: ▲84%; Now £11.6m

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