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: ▲2%; Now £2m
Cash at bank: ▲70%; Now £6.1m
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 58
Deferred income: ▲39%; Now £8.1m
Fixed assets: ▲16%; Now £60.2k

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