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: ▲20%; Now £9.3m
Cash at bank: ▲24%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 34
Deferred income: ▼63%; Now £180k
Fixed assets: ▼3%; Now £845k

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