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: ▲28%; Now £15.5m
Cash at bank: ▲154%; Now £1.7m
Headcount: 0%; Now 90
Deferred income: ▲17%; Now £1.7m
Fixed assets: ▼4%; Now £17.9m

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