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 £11.6m
Cash at bank: ▲25%; Now £7.4m
Headcount: ▲8%; Now 94
Deferred income: ▲20%; Now £65.7k
Fixed assets: ▼5%; Now £551k

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