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: ▲65%; Now £5.9m
Cash at bank: ▲87%; Now £6.6m
Headcount: ▼6%; Now 861
Deferred income: ▼15%; Now £304k
Fixed assets: ▼44%; Now £1.7m

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