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: ▼17%; Now £18m
Cash at bank: ▼30%; Now £12m
Headcount: ▲22%; Now 372
Deferred income: ▼20%; Now £7.6m
Fixed assets: ▼8%; Now £458k

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