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: ▲21%; Now £11.5m
Cash at bank: ▼25%; Now £2.9m
Headcount: ▼9%; Now 638
Deferred income: ▲89%; Now £1.8m
Fixed assets: ▼6%; Now £2.8m

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