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 £2.3m
Cash at bank: ▲115%; Now £636k
Headcount: ▼3%; Now 135
Deferred income: ▼12%; Now £339k
Fixed assets: ▼6%; Now £2.6m

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