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: ▲3%; Now £377k
Cash at bank: ▲612%; Now £693k
Headcount: ▼6%; Now 75
Deferred income: ▲133%; Now £577k
Fixed assets: ▲44%; Now £7.8m

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