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: ▼2%; Now £2.1m
Cash at bank: ▼91%; Now £48.5k
Headcount: ▼4%; Now 98
Deferred income: ▲24%; Now £66.6k
Fixed assets: ▼32%; Now £634k

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