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: ▲36%; Now £727k
Cash at bank: ▲59%; Now £465k
Headcount: ▲22%; Now 22
Deferred income: ▲352%; Now £29.8k
Fixed assets: ▲225%; Now £15.6k

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