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: ▲6%; Now £19.1m
Cash at bank: ▼98%; Now £313k
Headcount: ▲2%; Now 95
Deferred income: ▼7%; Now £5.6m
Fixed assets: ▲368%; Now £1.4m

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