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: ▲11%; Now £2.1m
Cash at bank: ▲65%; Now £124k
Headcount: ▼13%; Now 7
Deferred income: ▲3%; Now £54.6k
Fixed assets: ▼10%; Now £62.8k

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