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: ▼4%; Now £4.4m
Cash at bank: ▼38%; Now £5.1m
Headcount: ▲9%; Now 12
Deferred income: ▲20%; Now £5m
Fixed assets: ▲20%; Now £2.4m

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