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 £3.4m
Cash at bank: ▲21%; Now £2.6m
Headcount: 0%; Now 35
Deferred income: ▼28%; Now £1.8m
Fixed assets: ▲40%; Now £133k

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