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: ▲18%; Now £8.6m
Cash at bank: ▲242%; Now £1.8m
Headcount: ▲3%; Now 32
Deferred income: ▲104%; Now £137k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £977k

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