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: ▲42%; Now £10.6m
Cash at bank: ▼76%; Now £1.5m
Headcount: ▲93%; Now 29
Deferred income: ▼41%; Now £1.4m
Fixed assets: ▲55%; Now £159k

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