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: ▲12%; Now £22.9m
Cash at bank: ▲15%; Now £8.3m
Headcount: ▼1%; Now 72
Deferred income: ▲74%; Now £137k
Fixed assets: ▲13%; Now £11m

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