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: ▲20%; Now £1.1m
Cash at bank: ▲0%; Now £1.4m
Headcount: ▲33%; Now 4
Deferred income: ▲41%; Now £63.1k
Fixed assets: ▼80%; Now £284

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