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 £4.6m
Cash at bank: ▲71%; Now £9.2m
Headcount: ▼14%; Now 50
Deferred income: ▼2%; Now £324k
