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: ▲1%; Now £14.2m
Cash at bank: ▲22%; Now £8.3m
Headcount: ▼0%; Now 236
Deferred income: ▼1%; Now £1.3m
Fixed assets: ▼0%; Now £578k

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