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: ▲7%; Now £3m
Cash at bank: ▼55%; Now £483k
Headcount: ▼8%; Now 79
Deferred income: ▼44%; Now £287k
Fixed assets: ▼35%; Now £313k

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