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: ▲16%; Now £4.1m
Cash at bank: ▲108%; Now £210k
Headcount: ▲7%; Now 32
Deferred income: ▼40%; Now £19.8k
Fixed assets: ▲69%; Now £213k

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