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: ▼3%; Now £4.4m
Cash at bank: ▼60%; Now £446k
Headcount: ▼3%; Now 32
Deferred income: ▼70%; Now £195k
Fixed assets: ▼27%; Now £10.5k

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