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: ▲16%; Now £13.3m
Cash at bank: ▼2%; Now £1.9m
Headcount: ▲14%; Now 16
Deferred income: ▼74%; Now £71.7k
Fixed assets: ▼2%; Now £7.7m

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