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: ▲5%; Now £7m
Cash at bank: ▼34%; Now £65.9k
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 35
Deferred income: ▼23%; Now £430k
Fixed assets: ▼3%; Now £305k

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