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: ▼3%; Now £4.3m
Cash at bank: ▼74%; Now £17.5k
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 77
Deferred income: ▼31%; Now £91.6k
Fixed assets: ▲6%; Now £10m

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