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 £5.6m
Cash at bank: ▲706%; Now £8.4m
Headcount: ▼10%; Now 323
Deferred income: ▼30%; Now £338k
Fixed assets: ▲4%; Now £2m

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