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: —; Now −£2.4m
Cash at bank: ▲554%; Now £1.7m
Headcount: ▲84%; Now 136
Deferred income: ▲6%; Now £4.3m
Fixed assets: ▼11%; Now £8.3m

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