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: ▼1%; Now £4.6m
Cash at bank: ▼99%; Now £6.9k
Headcount: ▲1%; Now 88
Deferred income: ▼81%; Now £137k
Fixed assets: ▲7%; Now £25.5m

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