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: ▼0%; Now £5.2m
Cash at bank: ▲84%; Now £2.1m
Headcount: ▲24%; Now 262
Deferred income: ▼66%; Now £101k
Fixed assets: ▼0%; Now £19.3m

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