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: ▲10%; Now £3.5m
Cash at bank: ▼33%; Now £571k
Headcount: 0%; Now 24
Deferred income: ▲4%; Now £52.5k
Fixed assets: ▼26%; Now £45.1k

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